What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Jack Miller
"Best place in Grand Rapids to learn no gi jiu jitsu and practical grappling skills. Coach Chili is always on point and classes are fun and engaging. Teammates here are both tough and supportive. Highly recommend if you want to get into jiu jitsu or are looking for a solid no gi experience."
Sam J
"Amazing jiujitsu gym, with a great community. Very high-level training and great competition to make you very good. Whether you want to be a hobbiest, champion, competitor this is a great place for all people."
Morgan Thompson
"Chili is an awesome teacher and is equally skilled on the mat. I did a drop in and was treated like I had been training there for years. I do a lot of drop ins all over the country, and Chili's unique approach to teaching goes way beyond the standard move of the day followed by rolling. If you're local, you shouldn't be training anywhere else."
Michael Mabry
"Was visiting Grand Rapids on business and had a couple hours to attend 2 hours of a Monday evening with Chili and his team. Fundamentals and especially wrestling were awesome. Extremely friendly and knowledgeable group. Highly recommend stopping in if you are in the area. Great environment. Only wish I had more time to spend with them. Next time I am in town I will be reaching out again. Keep working hard Tenth Planet Grand Rapids!"
