SOMA Jiu-Jitsu Academy - Rexburg, Idaho - Martial arts school in Rexburg - 26 College Ave, USA

The Emfield family is the best family to learn Jiu-jitsu from! They are kind and know what they are doing. If you are a beginner, you could not ask for a better team to teach you.

This place has the best jiujitsu of any place I've ever trained. It is such a safe place to practice extremely effective Jiujitsu... not to mention the great people you get to roll with. They are technical, powerful, respectful, and kind all at the same time. 10/10 would recommend to anyone.

We did private lessons with Coach James along with his group trainings and my son loved them! He is the best! I’m so glad to find additional positive male role models for my son, especially as he gets into the years when he is trying to find his place in the world outside of his parents.

Professor Jared Emfield and his son James Emfield are some of the kindest and professional martial artists I've had the pleasure of working with. They know how to teach well and are patient with everyone that walks through their doors to help them in their goal of learning Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

I started jiu-jitsu a few weeks ago and have enjoyed my time here immensely! The positive, encouraging, and safe atmosphere that has been created here is wonderful! I greatly appreciated being able to immerse myself in a class or two before making a decision about whether or not it was a good fit for me. I learn something new every time I attend class from the phenomenal leadership and the community of people. I have loved challenging myself with a new skill and look forward to many more weeks, months, and years of learning this art. My husband and son also attend and we all love it! Definitely recommend!

Need a family and a place to feel welcomed as you're wanting to reach fitness goals while learning jiu-jitsu? This is the place to be. James has been great and continues to really focus on a family culture. Everyone of all ages is welcomed! Great people and environment overall.

Great environment, very friendly and welcoming. The instructor is amazing, is patient and wise and it’s reflected in the students he trains. I felt welcome from the first class and have loved it ever since. You learn so much every class. I would highly recommend.

I have been training Jiujitsu for many, many years. James is a total Ninja. He has his black belt and he has learned how to instruct Brazilian Jiujitsu from the best. He is able to break down the moves and teach them so anyone at any level can come in and understand and learn. It is definitely a great place to learn a new form of exercise and great self defense. Try it. You'll love it!
