  • Inspiring Tight Knit Community

    I can’t say enough wonderful things about ECU! Both of my sons (4 and 7) absolutely love training there. We immediately felt a part of a really tight knit community when we joined… everyone is supportive, warm, and there to put in the work. It’s so inspiring!

  • Best Decision For My Son

    I signed up my son who is 5 to the kids class. I am so happy with the results! My son has a lot of energy and after signing up for classes at ECUBJJ he started getting behavior rewards at school, that never used to happen. Coach Christian and coach Brandon are amazing with kids, they have a blend of discipline and playfulness that is fair but firm. This was one of the best decisions we made for him. I highly recommend this school!

  • Couples That Train Together...

    My husband and I are both members of ECU and we absolutely love it. They offer classes for every skill level which are taught by fantastic and knowledgeable coaches. The gym itself has nice, well kept facilities and a very welcoming community of people. If you are looking for BJJ or Muay Thai classes, we couldn't recommend ECU enough!

  • A Family Afair

    My 5 year old son and I were first time participants in BJJ. We came to ECUBJJ and had a great experience. All the teachers were great, friendly and patient. Was a great experience for me and my son. We both can't wait to go back.
