Project BJJ & Muay Thai – Elephant & Castle

Located in the heart of London’s Elephant & Castle, Project BJJ & Muay Thai – Elephant & Castle carries forward a tradition rooted in the ZR Team lineage under the guidance of head coach Alain Pozo. The academy’s coaching team draws directly from Pozo’s mentorship, with decades of combined experience across BJJ, MMA, and other martial arts. Notably, Callum Hanman, who began martial arts at age seven and rose through competitive ranks to receive his black belt after years of dedication, is a prominent instructor and business partner. The club opened its doors in 2024 and has quickly become a fixture for those seeking rigorous, authentic Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in the city. Training at Project BJJ & Muay Thai – Elephant & Castle is structured to support progression from complete beginners to advanced practitioners. Both gi and no-gi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes are offered, with specific sessions for adults, teens, and children. The Rolling Tigers kids’ programme is designed to instil discipline, confidence, and resilience, with regular grading and seminars led by Alain Pozo and guest instructors who bring real-world expertise from military and law enforcement backgrounds. The team’s ethos centres on respect, perseverance, and the development of technical skill, whether students train for fitness, self-defence, or competition. Classes run throughout the week and cater to a diverse membership, from first-timers to experienced competitors. The academy’s open-door policy encourages those interested to visit, observe, or join a session, reflecting its mission to make Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu accessible to all in London. With a strong sense of camaraderie and a focus on personal growth, the club continues to expand, providing a supportive environment where every member is challenged to reach their potential both on and off the mats.
