BUILT ON TECHNIQUE. POWERED BY CULTURE.
Elizabethtown Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a dedicated martial arts academy offering world-class instruction in a welcoming, ego-free room.
WHAT IS BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU?
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a grappling-based martial art built around leverage, positioning, technique, self-defense, and live sparring. Elizabethtown BJJ presents it as training for beginners, professionals, and kids alike.
OPEN ADMISSIONS & ZERO EGOS
Elizabethtown BJJ is welcoming new members and guests. New students can start with a $59 startup special that includes two weeks of training and a free gi. After that, training is month to month with no contracts, and any additional immediate family member is half off.
