Kraken Jiu jitsu - Cadillac Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy martial arts and self-defense

“Jesh the owner is incredibly skilled, kind, and proficient at teaching. As a complete beginner, he and everyone that attends classes are very careful at teaching, drilling, and practicing in a way that you learn but don’t put yourself at risk of injury. It’s a refreshingly welcoming community. We are lucky to have this gym in Cadillac.”

“With a few months in, I have nothing but good things to say about the gym. It is very clean, with a major focus on safety and hygiene. Jesh and Tom are both extremely knowledgeable and helpful, and everyone training is respectful and careful. We are very fortunate to have such a great place and great people to train with in a small town like Cadillac.”

“Very friendly people, willing to help you learn the moves if you're new, and they go the appropriate intensity. Jesh the owner is a wealth of knowledge, and fun to roll with. But don't expect to win lol. Definitely recommend this place if you're looking!”

“Visited a class at Cadillac Jiujitsu while on vacation in northern Michigan. Brought my beginner sister and we started the class with basic stretching and jiujitsu techniques. Tom, our instructor, was very informative and helpful for her and taught me a few new moves. Very clean gym and changing/shower facilities. If you are in the area I would highly recommend this gym for all levels!”

“Extremely clean gym!! Owner was very kind and welcoming. Having a huge women's program is also always a sign of a well-run gym and a strong community”
