I've been training BJJ for three years but my little brother, who lives five minutes away from this gym has been thinking about doing a trial class for years, but not quite pulled the trigger. I was in town so decided to check it out for him.

Eddie's name popped up through previous coaches who spoke highly about him, so I was keen to see what the gym was like. In short, I've already decided it's my new London gym to train at when I'm visiting my family!

Eddie teaches with a slightly different style from what I'm used to, but I really enjoyed it, and the level of detail in his technique was really exciting to experience; I got so much out of one session, and EK even made time to have a roll with an old man blue belt after the class. Really nice touch. Suffice to say I'll be in my brother's ear about getting down for a trial class, but I'll hopefully be able to find the time and money to drop in again when I'm in town. Highly recommended if you're looking for a place to train BJJ.

Sensei Tic is brilliant with the kids, and the perfect mix of firm but fair, and with a good sense of humour too. They’re always learning something new, but also going over the same moves to ensure they are solid.
The space is light and clean with all of the facilities you need, and the classes are fun to watch as a parent.

No words can describe the instructions that's been given by Eddie and the details. The academy changed how I think about life not just on the mats

BJJ has been on my radar for years and I had put off joining a club due to injuries and if I'm honest the thought of being in uncompromising situations with another sweaty person.....oh and being in my 40's.
From day one I was made to feel welcome, everyone is just so nice with a real community feeling. Eddie is amazing how he breaks down each move focusing on understanding the basics. Coming to the classes have become a real highlight of my week, i just regret not joining when I was younger!

From the moment you walk in you notice that the place screams heritage and legacy. Great instruction directly from the source. Clean facilities and highly qualified and friendly staff. A great place to learn martial arts whether for adults or children.

Self defense from a reliable and tested source - Gracie Jiu Jitsu. Curriculum/book with moves from white belt to black. Environment of learning, camaraderie, and friendships. Variety of classes - striking, no GI, Gracie self defense, beginners, and private ones as well. This place will not only teach you jiu jitsu but also help you become a better person.

Eddie and the gang are absolutely brilliant!

It can feel a bit tricky starting a new hobby in your 30's, but there inclusive vibe at this gym made it super easy.

The teaching looks backwards to the rich history of the past but doesn't shy away from the ever evolving sport of ju jitzu today.

Couldn't be happier!

Professor Kone has nurtured a rare thing here: an academy that is big on respect, technique, and authenticity, and small on ego, aggression and bs.

If you want to learn real Gracie Jiu Jitsu in London, you won’t find anywhere better than Professor Eddie Kone’s academy. Eddie was taught by Master Helio himself and still today maintains a style that focuses on effective self defence, and real- world application, rather than sport and flashy technique.

The atmosphere at the academy is second to none, everyone that trains there feels that they are a part of something bigger, and support each others growth, regardless of rank and experience.

I just hope I never have to leave Walthamstow and train somewhere else, as places like this are a rare find!

I've been training here for almost 1.5 years and can safely say this is my second home. Great academy culture and top-tier tuition. Spoiled to live so close to the place.

Such an amazing BJJ academy! The level of education, support and motivation from the professor Eddie, the rest of the coaches and the rest of the academy is incomparable! There is a lot of love, support and motivation between the academy! EKBJJ family ❤️

Excellent place to learn real Gracie jj and grow, especially for beginners, friendly and caring teachers create a safe environment where respect and attention to detail are priorities. This place is a real gem and will always have a place in my heart.

Amazing setting for my children to learn and thrive. They enjoy every second of it and look forward to their classes. I couldn’t ask for more. My children are growing in confidence and making new friends. Such an amazing environment with a strong community. Highly recommended!

Eddie Kone is one of the few originals left. He got his training direct from the source. If you walk into the academy, you will be greeted by photos of professor Eddie kone with the grandmaster gracie himself in Brazil when he was much younger. This is the one thing that EKBJJ has over most academies. The safety practices and camaraderie is also top notch with modern digital tools provided to students to aid them on their journey.

One of the best places to train, gain confidence and learn the classic art of jiu-jitsu. It is a very welcoming and family oriented academy.

This Academy is an amazing place to learn authentic Gracie Jiu-Jitsu. The environment is friendly and welcoming and the instruction, led by Professor Eddie Kone, is clear, concise and easy to follow. Questions are welcomed from newcomers and experienced students alike, while aggression is not tolerated.

The classes are well structured and the Professor is assisted by a team of talented and highly experienced black belts. Everybody is friendly and approachable; higher belts go out of their way to make new students feel included as part of the class. The environment is clean, safe and easily accessible.

There is an unequivocal focus on education - mistakes are corrected without embarrassing novices and I never feel overwhelmed by the pace of learning.

I would strongly recommend this Academy. I joined to learn Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and while I'm happy with my progress to date, I realise I am also being taught patience, resilience and awareness. This place really makes you feel like you're a part of something much bigger. I hope it never changes - it really does feel like a home away from home.

They are very attentive and diligent. I enjoy the fact that everything is rooted in practical self defence strategies.

There is a strong community that I’m proud to be a part of.

Great place for people in all ages. Clean, safe and professional place.
Definitely will recommend 👌

Eddie is a brilliant trainer, with a vast knowledge of BJJ, extremely helpful and extremely passionate in his teaching of BJJ

The teaching and friendly atmosphere make me feel safe and welcomed at all times. Pure martial arts with pure intentions of helping the community with Jiu Jitsu for self defence as a pillar in the teachings.

I have been recently searching for a Brazilian Jui-Jitsu Academy for my 6-year-old son. After visiting a few other places, I was a little disappointed in the organisation, discipline, and general atmosphere of those OTHER places.

However, both my son and I really liked everything about the Eddie Kone Academy of Jui-Jitsu. The venue is clean, the instructors are well-organised and supported, and the kids really enjoy the classes – whilst discipline and respect is maintained. Highly recommended.
