I stumbled across Enso when my interest in Jiu Jitsu first piqued because it was the closest gym to where I was living. 5 years later, and I couldn’t be more happy that it is the gym I call home. Keisuke is a phenomenal coach, and all of the other instructors are dialed in technique and teaching it to students from beginner to advanced. More than the game, though, is the community. The group of people who train at Enso are welcoming, enjoyable to be around, and fantastic people on and off the mats.
In an area where there is a rich and widespread martial arts culture such as Portland, many clubs will have different vibes and ways that they are run. When finding a fit can be difficult, I believe Enso is unique in how it has something for everyone and what it offers for training. I was fortunate to find Enso when I did: They were extremely welcoming, the atmosphere is fantastic and positive with instruction that often feels more personal and thoughtfully considered rather than rote and routine. There is room for people at all skill levels, especially notable is the number of high level practitioners who continue to train alongside the beginners, personally coach and support those still finding their way. The culture here is second to none, it quickly became more than just a place to train, but a place I am extremely thankful to be able to call home.
Amazing humans train at this gym!! Had a blast training with these guys for open mat.
