Skye is a great instructor! His style is highly focused on technique. Without proper technique you can injure yourself and others. If your partners get injured during practice then you don’t have a partner. Thus, the high focus on technique and making safety a priority. He’s very thorough with his instructions and works very well with the younger kids. Highly recommend!
Without a doubt one of the only clubs Ive trained at where the instructor works with white belts to not waste energy and focus on their control. Implementing concepts like shoulder control with a mix of techniques rather than just showing technique after technique. Covid-19 has been responded to well with balancing safety, while still learning curriculum. If youre new or expirenced this is the club for you.
Ive been training with Skye for nearly three years now. Not only is he a great instructor but a highly respectable, devoted, patient person. The community of people at SBJJ are welcoming, friendly, and they truly want to allow you to have a safe learning environment. Nevertheless, his rates are the most affordable Ive seen in Linn county with a flexible schedule. Come learn!
This is an excellent school. The curriculum is incredibly unique while maintaining the integrity of the Pedro Sauer organization. The members are friendly, the attitudes are positive, and trust is foundational.Law enforcement and emergency personnel are well represented, and there are even occasional seminars that are tailored to those groups.A true diamond in the rough in rural Oregon.
I have been training with Skye for almost ten years now. Sphygmus is an environment where anybody from any background, regardless of skill or experience, can train and have a good time. Positive atmosphere and great instruction. I highly recommend anyone in the Lebanon and Sweet Home area to come train here!
I have trained with the individuals here for years. They have great instructors, coaches and teammates. I would defiantly check out his school any chance you he get!
I started bjj almost 2 years ago and I absolutely love it. The environment and people are amazing. Its feels more like a family training here than just teammates. All skill levels are welcome and Skye does a great job instructing and explaining everything thoroughly. Highly recommended if youre in the area and looking for something new and fun to try!
This is a very safe space for everyone. I watched my teens lesson here and was impressed by the wide range of ages, gender, and skill levels. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming, committed to improving at their sport, but also readily willing to help others. The instructor was knowledgeable, encouraging, and energetic.
Great group of people! Everybody is always willing to help each other out with a positive attitude.
Skye and crew were awesome! Very friendly and fun to roll with. Great to have a morning jiu jitsu training option in Lebanon! small space but clean and used well. Check them out!
No experience required to begin Jiu Jitsu here, a great place for beginner to advanced. A safe, encouraging, family friendly, and positive training environment. Great for weight loss, and a peaceful and healing martial art I’m finding.
I’ve been training jiu jitsu on and off for a long time. There are so many fantastic qualities about Skye’s teaching. Whether you are looking for a good workout, learn for self defense, or train for fun, you will find it here at SBJJ! Cannot recommend him enough!
I have been training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu with Skye for over 9 years. Skye is an amazing instructor, coach and friend and the whole group at Sphygmus Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a direct reflection of his dedication to his gym and students. If youre interested in learning Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for self defense, sport or just for a good workout, I would highly recommend Sphygmus Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
I have had the good fortune of training in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for the past 10 years or so. I have enjoyed tremendous learning from this sport both on and off the mats. Though we started small with only 4 people, over time our group has grown and our membership is rich with experience and a variety of knowledge and skill sets. I love that every time we train there is an exchange of information and even though I often instruct, I am taught new things by each teammate. Our law enforcement members make a great contribution to our environment and training as they bring real-world experience into the equation and educate us on a seemingly endless variety of topics. James in particular is a long-time friend, trusted instructor, and has a very pragmatic approach to teaching. Our other instructors have a variety of experience levels, but all pull their weight in pushing the more experienced members, welcoming the new, and encouraging those somewhere in between. In addition to my love of training, the friendship and community network that has come from our BJJ family continues to delight and surprise me. Come check us out to see for yourself what BJJ is like and where you fit in our family.
I dropped in for a class and there was excellent instruction, great techniques, and awesome people. Definitely will be stopping by again when I’m in the area.
Skye is a great instructor here, I learned a lot about self defense and it quite a.workout.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Classes. They have moved to South main Street. Very friendly instructors. Focused on improving techniques.
Its alot of fun going to stick with it
James Glover is an amazing instructor and even better person. If you are ever in the area or you live in the greater area you would be hard pressed to find a better instructor in the state of Oregon!
Excellent place to train!
