Dark Path Grappling

Dark Path Grappling offers Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes in Godalming, Surrey, embracing the evolution of modern BJJ and submission grappling. Inspired by pioneers like the Gracies and innovators such as John Danaher, Craig Jones, Gordon Ryan, and Lachlan Giles, the gym stays ahead of the evolving grappling meta. The approach blends techniques from wrestling, judo, catch wrestling, and more, refining what works through real training and competition. Founded by Adam Ellis, a black belt (2nd degree) who began his BJJ journey in 2010 under Andy Roberts (a Roger Gracie black belt), Dark Path Grappling provides expert instruction for all skill levels. Adam earned his black belt in 2018 and has competed successfully at every belt level, achieving 4-time European medalist status at black belt and ranking 12th globally in the IBJJF 2023-2024 Gi season (Black Belt Super Heavy Master 2). He was also the highest-ranked adult black belt male in the UK Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Federation in 2019. Classes are structured to include dynamic drilling sessions, positional rolling, free sparring, movement drills, and mobility work, creating an environment focused on learning, improvement, and understanding the "why" behind techniques. The gym offers a beginner-friendly atmosphere where new students can learn at their own pace, with no experience required. Dark Path Grappling trains out of Hone Gym in Godalming and welcomes both adults and teens (ages 12-15) to "walk the Dark Path."
