In town from Mexico. Went for Thursday morning No-Gi. Met by Eli the professor. Great dude. Inviting and chill atmosphere. Good rolls, great class. Their schedule is on IG. Make sure to come and check them out!

Got the chance to visit this Academy where my son also was allowed to do a drop in visit and roll. The other adult students were so welcoming and even knew how to roll with without an ego while treating him with respect, not to mention under the watchful eye of Eli/coach. The academy is super clean with a bathroom and a cold water fountain. Overall was a very nice visit and liked that they are heavy roll orientated. will visit again and at their other locations.

My experience with the Daniel Gracie gym and team is seeing what it has done for my son and the focus and dedication he has for this sport. He is enjoying his time and learning so many things here. He is 100% dedicated to something he chooses to be involved with. He loves it. I am seeing the affect and impact that Cody and the team of mentors have on my son. He has always been a great athlete and this really gives him an opportunity to compete at a very high level of focus and dedication. It is also a great place to go if you are just getting started. It all starts with building blocks and this is a great place for a foundation in the sport of martial arts. My son started here about a year ago as a beginner and those building blocks are the foundation of what now has become a focus that is amazing. Good luck to the Daniel Gracie Team. Mr Doyle

Couldn't even say enough great things about these guys. I've been training at the gr location for two years and I've gotten a blue belt from them. Nice people, no egos either, just positive people who want to help you! I have my ten year old daughter going up there and it's something we both enjoy doing together very much. I would honestly tell anybody to at least go and try one class you will not regret it! Kalamazoo, consider yourselves lucky to have a gym of this caliber open up in your backyard!

I’ve been going to classes for a few weeks and have had a great experience. This gym has top-notch instructors that can tailor techniques to newer people just getting into BJJ. If you are nervous about starting because you are new, I would highly recommend coming here, and the first class is free.
