Carlson Gracie Grand Rapids Bjj Jiu-jitsu: what do users think?
Kristen Azevedo Cossich Furtado: If you are looking for a jujitsu school. You need to look no further. This has been the best thing that has happened to our family since we’ve moved to Michigan not only did we find a great gym to train but we also found a family/community. The kids team is amazing. They are very competitive, but they have created great friendships and cheer each other on. The owners are amazing and truly care about each and everyone of their members. They are in it for all the right reasons and truly care about their gym. We love being here and can’t imagine being anywhere else.
Kaylee Dyk: Very welcoming atmosphere for any skill level.
Jared Manhart: This place is amazingly!!! Whether your child is a beginner or already has experience in BJJ, they have a class for you. Each class from beginner to advanced youth has the right amount of challenge and discipline to suit there age and experience.

Andy & Kelly Krause: We love this gym! We have been attending with our 7 year old for almost two years now. Mike and Sarah are some of the most wonderful people you will ever meet. The coaches are phenomenal. Fellow students and parents are so supportive- you’ll never want to leave!
Joe Wildey: I only visited this gym twice when I was still able to do BJJ, but it was an incredible gym. The instructors were nice, and also thorough in their instructions. Everyone was warm and welcoming, but also very hard working. Their membership plans are flexible, and rather than trying to push the most expensive plan they aim for the one most appropriate for you. You even get like a free month to check them out, which is rare for a gym.Whether you're looking to compete or just lose weight and learn cool stuff this is a great gym.
Charles Humphrey: Stopped in for a visit from Sudbury. Didnt know what to expect. Great welcome, very friendly and skilled people, good culture. Extremely impressed with the supportive interactions I witnessed between youth students. This would be my place if I lived in GR. Will be back.
Jennifer Fauskee: Our son has only been a few times, but he’s hooked. Instructors take their time to help kids along & answer questions that my kiddo had his first time. We’re definitely going back.
Bre Wierenga: We are new to this community and our experience in getting involved has been very pleasant. The instructors are incredible with my seven year old son and the family dynamic of the community is very evident. We look forward to being a part of Carlson Gracie GR and highly recommend it to everyone at any age.
Henry Kooyer: First day I showed up to watch a session and I was greeted with open arms. I am very new to Jiu Jitsu so I was nervous going into my first couple of session, they helped me get comfortable and I’ve already seen improvements in a couple of classes.

I would highly recommend this place to anyone starting or continuing their Jiu-jitsu journey.
Ram Hmung: I’ve been there for twice and the experience was awesome. I met cool people and each time, I learned new things from them. Go check it out. Highly recommended! :)

Ronin Martial Arts Academy: what do users think?
T JB: Craig is the most qualified person in Michigan!Easy parking, simply the best!
Eric Boynton: Great place to train, learn and meet good people!
Sara Cawley: Craig is a knowledgeable and expert instructor. The people who train at the academy are friendly and open. Everyone is helpful.
Christoph Prem: Craig is a phenomenal trainer has built a great training environment.
Mike Brann: Craig is so knowledgeable in martial arts and self defense.Always patient while teaching. Highly recommend to learn self defense and get a great workout.
Jacob Harris: Master Craig is a very talented instructor who has a lot of skill conveying information to students, including newbies to martial arts / practical self defense. The atmosphere at Ronin Martial Arts Academy is very friendly and the community is full of friendly people.
Hollie McDonald: I started attending the Academy in January 2019. Since then, I've attended classes, tested for my next belt (passed- yay!), learned how to protect myself & others, and made life-long friends. Craig is an insanely talented instructor, but also an amazing human being. His approach is more holistic than I could have imagined- the physical and technical skills are incredible, but Craig also emphasizes protecting others through avoiding violence all together, how you can be a better member of society, and helps you understand how you and your actions can/should better the world around you. The personal growth I experienced includes becoming less of an aggressive-hard charger, and more of a thoughtful, intentional human trying to keep everyone a little safer. (As for the two-star review left by another reviewer SOLELY BASED ON A PICTURE, we'd love to welcome that reviewer at the Academy so they can learn more about how we keep ourselves and others safe, and why you need to get out of the way if someone is trying to stab you).
J Evans: Easily the best program and instructor in the state.
Jeff Riddle: WORLD CLASS. My wife and I recently attended a seminar for self defense reasons and were blown away. The owner/teacher Craig Gray clearly knows martial arts but perhaps more importantly, he's an outstanding teacher. He's patient, supportive, and creates a learning environment that's inclusive of all ages, genders, shapes, and sizes.In addition, the seminar was comprised of a community of the nicest people that went out of their way to make us feel welcomed.... a testament to Craig and his effort to shape a culture of support and inclusion. I was so impressed that I decided to join the academy and it's been the same experience with every class since.Highly recommend Ronin Krav Maga for those looking for an inclusive, safe place to learn effective self defense.
brandyn brown: Confidence and clarity are what I gain by training at the academy. What to protect, how to protect, and why we protect are themes that are interwoven throughout each class. And while physical fitness is not the primary focus, it's definitely a huge added benefit to attending classes. You don't have to be an athlete to train here, but you will feel like one if you do.
Jennifer Franson: I am a better person overall for training here! The class is challenging yet empowering as he teaches skills with ethical clarity and the class culture embodies a Protector community. Hopefully I won't have to use what I've learned but I am a much more confident person in the meantime!

DaitoryuNJ Aiki Jujutsu (Manny Jimenez): A perfect dojo to start or continue your martial arts journey. Very knowledgeable instructors.
Sugi Yama: After over a year of attendance, I will say that this dojo has high quality, welcoming, and wonderful instructors, and lots of opportunities for a variety of practices.I came into this dojo for their Shinkendo training a year ago with absolutely no prior martial arts experience, and I was pretty nervous. But Rodney and his students were super fun and welcoming, and I kept coming back to learn more. Rodney never gave me more than I could handle, yet always subtly pushed me to try harder and harder. He made my foray into the martial arts a really great experience.Later into training, I started training with Scott in Shinto Muso Ryu Jodo. His instruction is certainly a little more stern, but it has paid dividends as I've watched myself develop in the art. He takes great care in ensuring our technique is correct, and that we approach our training with the right mentality.Both Rodney and Scott's classes regularly feature visits and oversight from highly trained sensei, which serve as excellent supplements to their instruction.While I've personally never trained in the Daito Ryu program, the instructor, Hung, is a really wonderful man. Every time I see him, instructing or not, he is always very kind and compassionate. He is also highly knowledgeable in his arts. His students are lucky to have him!Overall, I have to say this is a wonderful place to learn martial arts. I've learned a great deal and met lots of amazing people here, and I still look forward to practice every day.
Chris Spencer: Positive:Communication,Professionalism,Quality,ValueGreat instructors, friendly, great atmosphere. Very knowledgeable.
ebiri nkugba: What a wonderful, open community for study.
Bruce Stevens: Nice influx of new students. Everyone handled the variety of techniques straight away.Excellent supplementary weapons training for the extended class.Look forward to more open-hand and Jo practice.
