WELCOME TO ELITE The Best Martial Arts in the South Bay Elite is proud to announce it received the “Best of the South Bay” award for Best Martial Arts for 2013. Elite thanks all who made this possible and recognizes this award mirrors the academy's tremendous growth over the past year. Thank you South Bay. Elite is so proud of its Los Angeles roots. Everyone Needs Self-Defense Here at Elite Training Center (Home of Los Angeles South Bay Krav Maga, Combative Mixed Martial Arts, and more) we believe that personal self-defense is not about ending up in a fight. It's about having the training and confidence to avoid potentially dangerous situations while being able to take charge and escape danger if the need ever arises. These skills provide peace and confidence to our students along with an excellent fitness workout. Elite Training Center blends the values of Respect, Honor, Strength, and Discipline into all of our training. One of the things you will notice when first entering the studio is how respect comes into play. The newest student is treated with respect and kindness by everyone, from other novices to black belts. This “family” atmosphere makes training, while challenging, both comfortable and fun. And Elite Training Center’s instructors all have operational experience of how to apply techniques in real life situations. Our training is always evolving through continuous technique improvement, where applicable, to provide you with the most effective, most current and safest self-defense. Here at Elite Training Center we have many different programs for the beginner to advanced student, if it's to come in and get the greatest fitness based workout of your life with the Thai kickboxing, flex fit and yoga classes or you would like to take part in all of the current self-defense style classes which make up our full combative mixed martial arts system, we have the program that will fit your needs.
