Performance Martial Arts Academy is located in Springfield, Oregon and serves the greater Eugene area. Founded by multiple time national champion and worlds medalist Ben Baxter on the belief that through Jiu Jitsu we can make the world a better place. The Performance Martial Arts Academy BJJ prides itself with being actively involved in the Eugene/Springfield Community.
I've been lucky to train at martial arts schools all over the world. It's incredibly difficult to find a place that is both friendly AND teaches a high-level of skill. Some gyms might be highly competitive but have a toxic environment. Other places can be warm and welcoming, but if you are going to invest years of your life you want to ensure you're getting the best instruction. Performance Martial Arts is the only gym I've trained at that manages to do both. They've produced multiple high level competitors, but are also a great place for beginners, young, old, families, etc. It's an incredibly supportive place that will help you achieve what you want. There's a reason they have more black belts than anywhere else around.

Performance martial arts has been the foundation of my everyday wellbeing. Whether you’re an up coming mixed martial artist who’s looking for training under world class coaching, or a 9-5 mom or dad looking to get a good workout in with some great teammates and friends, I invite you to join us. This isn’t just a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and MMA gym, it’s a place where mental toughness is forged through hard work and discipline, where confidence is bred and positive life lessons are taught when you’re not looking for them. Professor Ben Baxter has been a coach turned great friend and mentor who pushed me to limits I didn’t know I had myself, all while keeping a fun and competitive atmosphere while training. If you’re looking to become a savage on the mats and get into shape, learn how to effectively defend yourself in real life scenarios and make some great friends along the way this is the place for you!

My 9 year old daughter has been coming here for about 2 months now and let me just say we are thrilled! The way classes are designed for the kids keeps them engaged! They keep it fun for the kids while building them skills to build on for the next class. Price a month isn’t terrible at all to me for the amount of black belts and coaches you have helping out in the classes. Lots of knowledge and skill is held at this gym 💯

I’ve been taking three of my kids twice a week for several months and have enjoyed it immensely. Ben is an awesome instructor for all ages. My kids have grown in confidence and stamina. We’ve also gotten several friends to join in on the homeschool class during the day.
