Electric North Jiu Jitsu

"My son has been part of the training at Electric North for only three-ish months but has enjoyed every minute of it. From Coach to student everyone has been welcoming and challenging, which is a great fusion. Greg has been great at setting expectations, discipline and education. Jake has a humble but confident style that also works well with the students. It is a fantastic combo. It is good to see men being men without apology. The culture is robust. Outside the door I hear dads giving advice to their kids (from sharpening a stick to resolving hurt feelings) that builds up the character a young child needs. I have a strong community outside of ENJJ but it is a solid parallel structure which I'm glad to have my son become a part of."

"I travel every once in a while for work, so when I do I always try to find a spot to get some good training in. I try to find the same training I get back home in Mt Vernon, Illinois. Good instructional and lots of live rounds. This place didn’t disappoint at all. Great group of guys and girls, top notch wrestling, great jiu jitsu and tough atmosphere. If you’re in the area and looking for a good session this is your place. I’ll be visiting again next time I’m in Washington. Thanks for letting me drop in."

"Greg is the reason I started training jiu jitsu. Him and his team are super inspiring and very welcoming. I was able to drop in and train while visiting my mom in Washington. Being a visitor from Hawaii, I felt completely at home. The guys were friendly (not too friendly, they still train like savages 🤣) they were gracious to me being a white belt and not knowing the techniques they were doing. That being said they did a great job teaching and explaining to me how to do the moves correctly. Thanks gang. I will always train here when I visit Washington. Solid crew. Solid gym."

"My 3 kids have been a part of this gym for over 5 years and the transformation and confidence has been palpable. Despite what some recent reviews claim, the fact of the matter is the owner of this gym is dedicated to empowering our kids and challenging them mentally AND physically. The mindset that kids “can’t handle” tough feedback and tough physical exertion robs them of that empowerment. Anyone who claims he’s “hostile” toward kids is inaccurate; I’ve been in/around this gym for a long time and have seen hundreds of hours of jiu jitsu and KNOW the culture here is conducive to growth and confidence in both kids and adults."
