Great training environment, as a visitor to the area I felt welcomed by everyone the moment I walked in the door. Jaymin brings great enthusiasm to his instruction and takes the time to help with the little details that are so critical. Would highly recommend this gym.

I have been attending Lyons BJJ for 3-4 Weeks now about 4 times a week personally, and my son has been attending 3 times a week for the same amount of time. We both love the gym. The workouts are great the instructor is very knowledgeable and is amazing with kids. One of the biggest reasons I started was so that my son could do a martial art and learn some very import skills such as discipline, patience, and resilience. So far I have not been let down. I also find that one of the most important focuses of the gym is safety, which I think is amazing, because it helps to encourage longevity and persistence. We focus on safety so that injuries are minimal and everyone can keep training. I have been to many gyms that have not had that focus and as someone in my mid 30's I don't heal like I did when I was young so being able to stay away from injuries is very important to me.

This is a great gym! It’s always a good time and the coach is very knowledgeable. I appreciate that there is a strong emphasis on safety while still providing students the opportunity to get creative. If you’ve ever considered trying martial-arts I highly recommended giving this gym a shot!

As someone who has been searching for over a year to try to find a gym that felt safe, respectful, empowering and supportive I am so excited that I will be working with Lyons Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu!! After a single session I felt all of the ways that I was looking to feel and more. The owners were brilliant, generous, respectful and incredibly well-educated! Jaymin was able to inspire motivation out of me when I was unsure what I could bring to the session. Liz helped me to understand my body with just a few causal comments that were profound and so empwering to me. The approach to the lessons was done so subtly that I didn't realize how much I had learned until I was leaving and reflecting on what I truly gained from this experience. The guidance from the owners was both so comfortable and natural, it was easy to forget that I had ever been nervous or apprehensive about what the experience would be like. From beginngers to pros, there is something that everyone could gain from this gym and these owners!

My kids cross train here occasionally and it’s one of their favorite gyms in the area. Everyone is down to earth, friendly and a joy to be around. We truly appreciate having this opportunity so close to home!
