What Our Students Say

Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.

christopher stummer

"We couldn’t be happier with our experience at EBBJ Jujitsu! From the moment we walked in, the instructors made us feel welcome and part of a community. The tearchers are not only skilled martial artists but also incredible with kids—patient, encouraging, and full of energy."

Jason Thigpen

"Elijah Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has been a true gift to my entire family. As both a parent and student, I can say without hesitation that this gym is a special place. My children and I all train here, and the impact it’s had on our confidence, discipline, and overall health has been incredible. Sensi Elijah sets a high standard, not just in technique, but in culture. He brings out the best in every student with patience, intensity, and a deep respect for the art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. My kids have grown tremendously under his guidance, learning not only self-defense, but how to stay focused, respectful, and resilient on and off the mats. The kids’ classes are structured, engaging, and emphasize real skill development in a positive, family-friendly environment. Adults classes are equally challenging and welcoming, with a great mix of students and a strong sense of camaraderie. Whether you’re training to compete or just getting in shape and learning a valuable skill, this gym meets you where you are and pushes you forward. Highly recommended for kids, adults, and anyone ready to start or continue their BJJ journey. OSS 🥋💪🏽"

Usman Chaudhry

"I've been training here for almost 2 months now and it's been a great experience so far. There is alot of structure and discipline with the classes here. The instructors are extremely knowledgeable, helpful and willing to walk you through the technique. The other students are friendly and this a welcoming ego free atmosphere. I started training just to stay in shape and I've already dropped alot of weight. I'm down to 171lbs and starting to get ripped again. Also, I am slowly getting better day by day or at least I would like to think I'm getting better. I would recommend this gym to beginners looking to get in shape and also advanced students."

Kell Relentless

"Challenging and life changing, a solid instructor and good team atmosphere. I have been there about 6 years. The conditioning is great and the skills that i have learned there have allowed me to compete in multiple tournaments and win some of them. It is not for people who look for watered down martial arts. Neither for a person who is looking to be given a belt. If you are serious about training its a good school."
