BJJ/MMA training in Saskatoon?

[ViceGrip]

Hey there,

Not sure if this is an appropriate place to ask this or not, but it's my fave forum, so I'll have at it.

I'm moving to Saskatoon in a month or so, and I'm interested in finding a MMA / BJJ gym to train at once I've settled. I've really only been able to source 2 different places -

Champions (MFS) and Scheer's Martial Arts.

Does anyone from S'toon have any opinions of either of these clubs or alternate suggestions?

Many thanks.

don't go to Champion, it's a joke. Scheer's is your best bet for sure.

Sheers sucks man, I beat the shit outta a few people there. There training isn't too good. Alliance is the way to go tho, best MMA in Saskatoon.

Scheer's Martial Arts is very good

big facilities i hear. i think they have 400 square foot place there

very good basics and under good affiliate

 

[juijitsufan]

the bigger question is why the hell you moving to Saskatoon?

I feel sorry for you, but like Iowa nothing to do out there but train

So, like 2 people can train at a time?

So did you ever make it to Saskatoon? Anyway, they actually have some pretty good MMA at the YMCA of all places, 4 days a week, for really cheap.

Really ? What's your name ? I've trained there for around 7-8years, so I'm just curious who you "beat the shit out of"...lol

Seriously, Troy Scheer (BJJ Brown belt under Marcus Soares) Great Muay Thai (Just returned from a month in Thailand) Largest Fight team in the city, Great training partners. Plus the facility is World Class. You can't go wrong training there.

I think the YMCA MMA class may have started training at Way of the Dragon Martial Arts, run by Dave Mah (Who is also a class act)

The facility is 30,000 square feet. approx. 10,000 of olympic caliber mats.

Might be a little late but here's the website

i have a 14 year old son who is interested in brazilian jiu-jistu, is scheers a good place for him to go? is it expensive? are there even classes for his age group in bjj? thanks in advance

 

[Flow'n]

Scheers is awesome. Your son would be really welcome to join everybody training. Its a very comfortable atmosphere for beginners and there are many people his age that train at scheers. There was a really good thread in the UG a few weeks ago, Im going to try and track it down.

edit: Im sorry, Im not sure what the prices are for training right now as I am in Brasil. I do know that they are comparable to the other martial arts gyms in the city.

 

[lunchboxx5]

Even though the thread is old, I thought I'd post here since it already exists, hope someone can help.

I'll be moving to Saskatoon next month for work, and I want to find a good gym to continue with my training. I do muay thai, and started grappling, BJJ and a bit of greco-roman wrestling a few months ago.

So far I've heard of the following:
1) Scheer's
2) Alliance
3) Way of the Dragon

Have the reviews of these gyms changed?

And any other training gyms out there?

 

[Flow'n]

Scheer's and Alliance are both really great clubs for different reasons. I don't even want to comment on the others. Feel free to send me a PM
