"Huge, clean, professional state of the art facility. I live and train BJJ at a great gym in New Jersey but love the Detroit Lions, so i come to Michigan pretty often: This will definitely be my spot to pay a visit when I want to train a bit while in town for the Lions."
meadow Phillips
"Started training here about 6 months ago after switching from another local gym. Best decision I ever made! Coach Danny and Coach Anthony REALLY care about their students and my Jiu Jitsu skills and knowledge have increased dramatically. DJJ for life!"
Jawad Khan
"Visiting from out of town and everyone here especially professor Agemy was very welcoming. The instruction is world class and they have some of the toughest guys I’ve ever rolled with."
Bryce Whelchel
"Danny and Anthony are two of the kindest owners of any BJJ school I have ever visited. Always adhering to high standards and excellence, the two are fantastic instructors and will build the beginner to the expert. This is the gold standard of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu schools in Detroit."
