Martial Arts in El Dorado Hills, CA. Judo, Wrestling Jiujitsu


     Martial Arts in El Dorado Hills keeps getting better and better. EDH Grappling, home of EDH BJJ, The Wrestling Dojo, and Judo with Garrett Sensei is taking grappling to another level in northern California. This “school of grappling” has brought together some of the best grapplers in the area to share their experiences and knowledge on and off the mat.
     The Brazilian Jiujitsu program is led by black belts Eliot Kelly and Todd Jones. Cumulatively, they have amassed close to 45 years of grappling experience. Interestingly, they both started learning Brazilian Jiujitsu for the same reason; they wanted an active hobby that stimulated the mind and body. Their experiences have shaped a curriculum well balanced in Self-Defense, Sport Competition, and Fitness.
     The Judo program is led by black belt Garrett Aldrich. Garrett began his grappling career in folkstyle wrestling, but soon found a passion for the Olympic style Wrestling, Greco-Roman. As a cadet and junior he traveled on the national team, and moved on to wrestle in junior college. After overcoming some injuries and transferring to UC Davis he found a new passion in Judo. At the time, he was looking for a fun and active hobby that would get him back in shape. He quickly realized the training was doing more than getting him in shape. The philosophy and culture associated with the Martial Art allowed him to develop not only his body but his mind as well.

     The Wrestling program is led by former division one coaches Beau Weiner and Eliot Kelly. Although wrestling has become more of a sport than a martial art, the two coaches have applied their martial art experiences to provide a systematic approach to learning technique. In addition to technical instruction, the wrestling curriculum has incorporated elements of self-defense, fitness, and a philosophy that promotes honor on and off the mat.
