WHY CHERRY STREET RESIDENTS TRAIN HERE

Cherry Street — Tulsa's beloved 15th Street corridor — sits at the center of one of the city's most vibrant, walkable neighborhoods. Lined with indie boutiques, specialty coffee shops, acclaimed restaurants, and locally-owned galleries, the area attracts exactly the kind of active, health-conscious resident who has already decided that their physical and mental wellbeing matters. If you live in or around Cherry Street, you already understand the value of investing in yourself. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at Method is that next investment.

Getting here is simple. Head south on Peoria Avenue or Lewis Avenue from the 15th Street area — both routes are straightforward surface streets that drop you directly into south Tulsa. From either road, continue south to 51st Street, then head east to Sheridan Road. Method Jiu-Jitsu is right there at 5101 S. Sheridan Rd. The drive is roughly 5.2 miles and 12 minutes under normal traffic conditions, with no highway merge required. Evening classes typically see no rush-hour friction on this route by the time they start at 5:30 or 6:00 PM.

The Cherry Street neighborhood borders the University of Tulsa campus and sits adjacent to the Philbrook Museum of Art — one of Oklahoma's finest cultural landmarks. Both speak to the creative, intellectually curious population that calls this part of Tulsa home. Young professionals, graduate students, artists, and educators populate these streets, and they share one common trait: they want a physical practice that actually challenges them, not just another treadmill routine.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is precisely that. It is a martial art and full-body grappling sport that demands problem-solving, body awareness, and genuine effort every single class. You will leave each session physically spent and mentally reset in the best way possible. There are no script-following workouts, no monotony — just you, a training partner, and a mat.

Method Jiu-Jitsu runs morning, midday, and evening classes six days a week, which means the schedule fits around demanding professional lives, TU class schedules, and the kind of varied lifestyle that Cherry Street residents tend to lead. Whether you want the 6:00 AM session before heading into the Pearl District for work, or the 6:30 PM Advanced class after a full day, you will find your slot. No long-term contract is required to start — just show up for a free trial class and see if the mat feels right.

Our gym sits in a clean, purpose-built training facility with ample parking — a sharp contrast to hunting for street spots around Cherry Street venues. You pull in, you train, you leave feeling better than when you arrived. That is the Method experience, and it is twelve minutes from your front door.
