Welcome to Elite Leadership Martial Arts (ELMA). We’ve helped hundreds of Hamilton area families, just like yours, to discover the truly unlimited potential in their children since 1979. Although we haven’t always been known as Elite Leadership Martial Arts, our school has a deep history with the community and people of Hamilton. Our owner, Jeff Burroughs, has been a member of this school since 1987 and has been an integral part of helping ELMA become what it is today.
Children need role models today more than ever, and it’s even better when that role model is not their parent. This allows both parent and role model to educate them as a powerful team. Our team is great at making children feel welcomed and part of our family and will work with you to form a powerful force in your child’s life. From there we are naturally able to guide children to gain more self-confidence, more self-discipline and become more aware of who they truly are.
Located on the west mountain at 120 San Antonio Drive, Elite Leadership Martial Arts offers martial arts programs designed for Pre-schoolers, Children and Adults.
Excellent instructors! Amazing program! Very patient with my rambunctious 3 year old, and most importantly she LOVES it!

I joined Elite Leadership Martial Arts – along with my two daughters – a few years ago. As a parent, I have witnessed how the ELMA program has helped my children build confidence, discipline, respect & motivation that are reflected in everyday life. My girls feel a real sense of accomplishment, a sense of belonging, how to set goals, how to handle themselves in situations about bullying & stranger danger. Sensei Jeff Burroughs & Sensei April are dedicated, family oriented, positive role models that demonstrate true leadership & commitment in their teachings. For me, I have also benefited from the ELMA program physically, mentally & socially. Thank you for making such an impact & being a part of all our lives.
