Here’s the progress after joining Jacks private Lessons

Posted on October 1, 2026 | Comments Off on Here’s the progress after joining Jacks private Lessons

Pretty cool text I got from Ethan a couple days ago…
“Here’s the progress since I started dieting how you said to!”
I looked at the before-and-after photos and thought…
HOLY MOLLY. 

😂

That’s a CRAZY difference.
And here’s what makes Ethan’s transformation interesting:
He was already a hard worker.
He worked out.
He eat well.
He wasn’t lazy.
I didn’t give him some crazy 47-step diet plan.
We had a conversation. I showed him 2 things I would change …

(the magic, is he actually did it)

And BAM. Look at the difference.

There’s a lesson here that goes way beyond losing weight:

If you keep getting results you DON’T want, you probably need to stop repeating the same things and expecting a different outcome.

Sometimes you need a new strategy.
Sometimes you need a different coach.
And sometimes…
you need to change your environment.
Hang around different people.
Learn different things.
Adopt different standards.

Different environment → different actions → different results.

Damn proud of you, Ethan. You did the work.

👊

And if anybody else around Medford wants to see what they’re capable of…
I have what I believe is the best martial arts trial in Southern Oregon.
3 private 1-on-1 lessons.
Normally $300 Value — right now $99.
And I put a pretty ridiculous guarantee behind it:
Come train with me for all 3 lessons.
If you don’t have a blast, swear your butt off, learn some seriously useful self-defense, get great training, and feel like this is a community you want to be part of…
I’ll give you 100% of your money back.
Even after I’ve invested three days of my time training you.
I’m willing to take that risk to find more cool people like Ethan.
You just have to be willing to try something NEW.

👉

— sign up for the trial.

Medford Oregon EMT talks about his training at Jacks dojo in southern Oregon

if you’re looking for high-quality martial arts training in Medford, Oregon, hearing directly from students can make all the difference. Here’s what one local EMT had to say about training at Jack’s dojo.

With community Jack has built and the knowledge he freely shares I don’t think I could even turn away! “I have been honored with the opportunity of training at Jacks dojo the last few months. I have met, what l believe to be, lifelong friends and some of the toughest and most intelligent people out there. Between the community that Jack has cultivated, and the knowledge that he shares with those willing to learn, I don’t think I could ever turn away from what he has to offer!” -Ethan Lyon Medford EMT

“I spent six months learning Shaolin Kung-Fu in China. I have learned so much more about fighting from Jack!”

After I graduated high school, I spent six months learning Shaolin Kung Fu in China. I have learned so much more about fighting from Oregon MMA in about half that time.

Master Jack attention to detail and direct communication is what makes his dojo world class. I’m very grateful to have the opportunity to learn from them and would recommend this dojo with the highest regard.

5 Star ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐My son started at this dojo when he was just 4 years old!

Posted on November 27, 2025 | Leave a comment

My son started at this dojo when he was just 4 years old, originally because he had to wait to begin school because of his birthday. What we thought would simply be an activity to fill time has become one of the most meaningful and transformative experiences of his childhood -and for our entire family.
The growth l’ve seen in him is incredible.

His confidence has blossomed, his strength (both physical and emotional) has grown, and he carries himself with pride and discipline.

He has learned respect, focus, and perseverance, and those skills show up every single day at home and hopefully in school next year.

But what makes this Dojo truly special is the sense of belonging Jack creates. It has become a second home for him — a place where he feels supported, motivated, safe, and celebrated. Jack treats the kids with patience, kindness, and genuine care, while still pushing them to reach their full potential.

I am so grateful for the positive impact this Dojo has had on my son. It has shaped who he is becoming, and I couldn’t imagine a better place for him to grow. Highly, highly recommend!”
-Talitha Frontz-Pendergrass

….Absolutely love this entire family…. Some people you meet and they just feel like family. The friendships made in this dojo are quite crazy, I never thought Sir-Theo would end up being best friends with my little Wyatt… Or how the mom would end up playing basketball almost every night with my son in-between dojo lessons.. Love and appreciate you guys! Truly thankful the dojo helped us meet.

“Mom wanted me to try jiu jitsu… I didn’t want to at first… 5 Words.. Best Decision Of My Life”

Posted on July 5, 2025 | Leave a comment

My mom kept telling me I should find a Dojo that I could go to and learn Jujitsu; I wasn’t that into it when she first brought it up, but then, after thinking about it, decided to give it a try.

5 words:
Best. Decision. Of. My. Life.

The Dojo is more than just a Dojo, it’s a home away from home; Jack is patient, funny, and, more than anything (in my view), a father figure. I love the Dojo, and I think (and know) you’ll love it too if you give it a try.

I can 100% say this is my favorite place to be ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Posted on June 7, 2025 | Leave a comment

“Jack is a truly extraordinary person, down to his humor (unmatched), intellect and dedication to martial arts and to his students. You’ve never met anyone quite like him. I read these testimonials before coming into this dojo and thought, how could this man be loved THIS much? But it’s so easy! He is exceptionally gifted at teaching, and truly cares for his people. And the people in this dojo quickly become like family, they are awesome – this community is something I searched for for a long time. Here you receive raw and real knowledge of self defense, technique and martial artistry. I can 100% say this is my favorite place to be. When headed home after training, I’m already thinking about the next time I can come get my ass kicked” Jessica Jones 🙂

We enrolled our son in November, and it has been an absolute blessing for him! He has gained immense confidence and developed the ability to set and achieve his goals.

Jack possesses exceptional patience, directness, and supportiveness. He has been exceptionally receptive to our son’s unique needs and refrains from judging or treating him differently.
Jack holds our son accountable while maintaining flexibility.

We love the confidence we see in our boy and I love that I don’t have to drag him to practice he’s excited to go! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I met Jack by delivering a wrong address package but I feel it was divine intervention. I brought my son Kallen down to meet Jack that same day and we signed him up for a trial.

Kallen has been limited to what he can do due to epilepsy. When he was so excited about scuba diving and his doctor said that’s never going to happen he was depressed.

We had tried several other sports but nothing seemed to hit his interest.

Until now! Jack is an absolute blast. He is very in tune with his clients, he makes them all feel like family and gosh does he make us all laugh. We love the confidence we see in our boy and I love that I don’t have to drag him to practice he’s excited to go!
Thanks Jack we love you!
