About Element Jiu Jitsu Barossa
Our journey began in 2014 with the very first Element Jiu Jitsu classes being taught once a week by Head Coach Tom Gerlach at the old Barossa Boxing Club.
Since then, Coach Tommy has traveled the globe researching and developing his own coaching style, combining innovation and tradition to create an inviting atmosphere right from your very first class.
We believe that club culture is the most important aspect to Martial Arts.
We want our members to feel like they belong, which creates the best learning environment for them to prosper.
Today we have developed into a world-class facility in the town of Nuriootpa in the beautiful Barossa Valley wine region.
Our Facilities:
2 Mat Training Spaces
Padded Walls
Changroom facilities
Shower
Toilet
Car Parking on site on Greenock Road
We are a recognised affiliate of the Elevate Jiu Jitsu team who is lead by 2nd degree black belt, Liam Resnekov and also of Element Martial Arts in Adelaide under Black Belt Matt Becker.
We currently have BJJ (Brazilian Jiu Jitsu), Muay Thai & MMA for all levels of experience.
