AFS/ 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Richmond If you’re looking for world-class instruction in jiu-jitsu, Muay Thai, and wrestling — this is the place. Sifu Scott Elliott brings a rare blend of deep technical knowledge, old-school toughness, and modern coaching wisdom. His ability to break down complex movement and mindset into actionable steps has elevated my game beyond what I thought possible. He teaches with purpose and passion, and it’s clear he genuinely cares about developing every student who walks through the door. Coach Gina Elliott is a force of nature. A seasoned black belt and a disciplined Muay Thai technician, she teaches with sharp precision, calm intensity, and a warrior’s heart. Whether you’re striking, rolling, or drilling wrestling entries, she holds the room with strength and grace. Her attention to detail and ability to communicate effectively across skill levels is unmatched. The culture here is one of excellence without ego — serious training, serious results, and a community built on respect. Whether you’re brand new or looking to push through to that next level, this gym will sharpen you. Highly recommend. Five stars all the way.

We couldn't be more impressed! The instructors are truly exceptional: skilled, patient, and passionate about what they do. But what really sets this place apart is how much they genuinely care. Our children have not only grown in their skills, but also in confidence, discipline, and character. The positive, encouraging atmosphere makes it a place they look forward to every week. It’s clear the team is invested in helping each child reach their full potential both on and off the mat. Highly recommend to any family looking for a place that builds strong bodies and strong values!

Great teachers and gym atmosphere. Everyone is just trying to better themselves while also helping others achieve their goals as well. My daughter recently started going and all the kids welcomed her right in. I highly recommend this gym to anyone wanting to learn authentic martial arts.

Highly recommend. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and supported—whether you’re a total beginner or have years of experience, the coaches and members here treat you like family. The instruction is top-notch, with an emphasis on both technique and safety, and you can tell the instructors truly care about helping everyone improve.

It was fate that brought me to AFS/10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Richmond. i didn't know how much i needed it until i walked through those doors and felt the energy and atmosphere that AFS/10th Planet Richmond brings. This gym will bring out the dog in you. The coaches wanna see you win. Not just in martial arts but even more so in life. They will unlock your potential and produce leaders on and OFF the mats! There are no handouts, and for me i like that you have work and grind for what you want to achieve on those mats. Supportive teammates, supportive parents and supportive coaches make this place work! Respect is a staple at AFS and i think we all are forever students of learning to respect one another. I am happy to call AFS/10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Richmond, family and my home gym! Blood family is pre determined, your gym family is a choice! This is a culture. 10P4L
