About Us

Elite Force BJJ was created out of a passion for the sport. Born from lots of experience training or teaching at other gyms, the three owners sought to create a school that had all the things they liked and none of the things they didn’t. The school is led by one of the best-known practitioners in the world, Alexandre “Pulga” Pimentel. Pulga, as he is known, is also one of the best competitors in the sport having won almost every title over his career. He also competed professionally at MMA.

 

Pulga leads all classes and has excellent teaching skills as well as the ability to create a fun environment for students. “People learn faster and deeper when they are having fun.”

 

The gym is located on Federal Highway in Lighthouse Point but serve areas including; Deerfield Beach, Pompano Beach and Boca Raton.

 

The total membership numbers are deliberately capped so that no class is too busy to have effective time with the coach and space to practice moves. 

 

We have a full schedule to make training easy to fit into the most busy lives. We are also one of the few gyms that have early Morning, lunchtime and evening sessions. 

 

We cater to all age’s groups, genders, shapes and sizes, BJJ really is for everyone. Our oldest member is in. their 60’s and our youngest is 5. We also have a ladies only program.

FAQ


  • Do I have to commit to a long-term program?

    NO, we don’t have programs or contracts. It is important to us and the culture of the gym that people training have made a choice to be there. People on contracts often feel resentful and so don’t make the best training partners. Are we going to push you to overcome your own self-doubt or maybe the challenges of life getting in the way of training, YES we are, but not with contracts and commitments just with energy and encouragement. Our terms are simple 30 days cancellation and that’s it.

  • What if I need to travel or worse become sick and can’t train

    Easy, you can pause your membership without losing any membership benefits like a price hold once you join. 

    You can pause membership for a month or more up to three months. You are still considered a member and so the price protection you have is preserved. The price you join at will never go up.

  • Are there any added costs to training as I progress?

    NO absolutely not. Your monthly fee covers everything including belt promotions. 

  • Is there a joining fee?

    No there is no down payment to join Elite Force BJJ. The only additional cost is a GI, which we will be happy to supply at cost or you can source your own. We will lend you a GI until you have your own. 

  • Am I too old to start BJJ?

    NO we have members as old as 72 and as young as 5. In fact, one of the owners is 66 and only started training BJJ in his mid-fifties. Make no mistake BJJ is going to be challenging. It’s not easy and will tax you mentally and physically but the rewards of overall fitness, well-being and camaraderie very much outweigh the challenges.

  • What if I haven’t done martial arts before?

    That doesn’t matter all classes are delivered by our chief coach and co-owner Alexandre Pimentel. He is one of the countries most experienced BJJ instructors as well as being multi time world champion. His ethos is to deliver a class to the least experience person on the mats. 

  • I’m not too fit right now and a little overweight can I train BJJ?

    You are not alone, and the answer is yes. BJJ is an overall great workout and BJJ gyms that make wild claims about weight loss are to be avoided. The fact is that weight loss is about calories and exercise and BJJ is a wonderful compliment to a weight loss program. Many people are using the quite new Semuglutide family of pharmaceuticals to lose weight. One of the challenges of this path is muscle loss. BJJ is especially good at maintaining this as is relies of a notion called “time under tension” which is now widely regarded as the best way to develop muscle tissue.
