"Building Character Through Jiu-Jitsu"
The IN-HOUSE Tournament | Friendly Series is more than a competition. It is a community event organized by East LA Jiu-Jitsu, a 501(c)3 nonprofit jiu-jitsu school serving the entire East Side of Los Angeles. Every registration directly supports our nonprofit programs at Boyle Heights Jiu-Jitsu and East LA Jiu-Jitsu, which provide affordable and accessible jiu-jitsu training to youth in the community.
By competing, you give the gift of jiu-jitsu. Want to support beyond registration? Every donation goes directly to our programs.
