Learning jiu-jitsu in central Lisbon

This guide covers central Lisbon — Ajuda and Rato. Two full entries, both doors of the Five Elements network, and both fully price-transparent: the printed card runs from 70€ a month on a twelve-month commitment to 150€ with no contract, with 50€ enrolment including sports insurance. And the city's first honest fact — the trial costs money here: «20€ por aula», the single-class rate the card itself applies to the «aula introdutória/experimental». The Ajuda mother academy («Matriz») is established enough to appear in OpenStreetMap as an amenity; the Rato door is the walk-to option from the centre. The class grid isn't posted — ask when contacting. For someone just starting, the real question is not "which academy is best" but "which one fits me."
