The Vault Jiu Jitsu

The Vault Jiu Jitsu in Morton, Pennsylvania, is run by owner Matt Kelley and his team, who have made it their mission to make Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu accessible to everyone, no matter their age, background, or level of fitness. Located just outside Philadelphia in Delaware County, the academy is designed with approachability in mind, focusing on helping new students overcome the challenge of stepping onto the mats for the first time. Matt and his instructors emphasize that every practitioner started as a beginner and work to ensure that newcomers feel comfortable and safe from day one. The class schedule at The Vault offers a mix of morning and evening training options throughout the week. Adults can join No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu classes, as well as introductory gi classes that lay a foundation in fundamental techniques. The gym also hosts open mats—especially popular on Sundays—for students and drop-ins looking for extra rounds or a chance to train with visitors. Yoga is included on the weekends to complement grappling, helping students with mobility and recovery. For younger students, The Vault runs kids’ Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes divided by age groups: 5–8 and 9–12. These classes focus on building confidence, patience, and problem-solving skills in a fun setting, with instructors who are experienced in working with children. The academy also offers women’s introductory lessons, aiming to empower women through self-defense and physical fitness. The facility is wheelchair accessible, and the staff regularly welcomes drop-ins, making it easy for anyone in the area to get started or continue their training journey.
