Corvus Jiu Jitsu

Corvus Jiu Jitsu in Riverton, Utah, is led by Head Coach Steffen Soller, a third-degree black belt whose instruction draws heavily on the systematic curriculum inspired by John Danaher’s Kingsway Team. This approach focuses on mechanically optimized techniques that have proven effective in high-level competition, guiding students through a structured progression that covers all critical aspects of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Alongside Soller, the coaching staff includes black belt Miguel Maldonado, brown belt Johnathan Carli, and purple belts Micah Goodell and Quinn Charney, with Kim Icasiano directing the women’s classes. Training at Corvus emphasizes a balance of technical drilling and live sparring designed to build proficiency through resistance-based learning. Students engage in positional drilling and micro drilling to develop problem-solving skills and reinforce efficient technique application under varied conditions. The academy offers classes in both gi and no-gi formats, as well as dedicated sparring sessions and open mat times that accommodate a range of training needs for adults. Classes are open to drop-ins and the facility is wheelchair accessible, reflecting an effort to provide practical access for a broad spectrum of practitioners. Corvus operates two locations in the Salt Lake area, including their main gym in Cottonwood Heights and the Riverton address on Meadow Spring Lane. The program aims to deliver organized, efficient instruction that supports steady skill advancement without sacrificing technical depth.
