Hey thinking about taking some classes at this place I found in Lansing. The website looks sweet. Just wondering if anyone in here trains there or anywhere else around the 517 area in Michigan. I live in Jackson but I cant find a damn thing here.

i have been to a few of their amateur cards. Seems like they have a good group of people. Join now and get in on amateur fights on March 13th. I live in Las Vegas Nevada but I have family in Michigan I visit a couple of times a year.

It's definitely worth stopping by and checking out if you are really looking to train there.
IMO any gym can have a fancy website but it all comes down to how class goes down and the environment you feel most comfortable in. So go in and meet with the instructor and see what's up, maybe ask for a trial class.

Not sure if it would be any closer, but I know there's a BJJ/Muay Thai gym in Commerce, of course I think that would be closer to Detroit.

AND I believe there is a BJJ academy in Ann Arbor, if that is closer. Can't remember which is closer to Jackson. I recall the trainer has a brown or a black belt under one of the Rebeiro's.

These would be a bit of a drive but there is EastWest Martial arts in Canton that has the Machado's as trainers or IMO the best MI gym is MASH. It's located in Redford and the instructors are Don Richardson and Todd Allee. Carlos Elias has also taught a few classes/seminars and he is a BJJ black belt from the Gracie Academy when it was run by Helio and all his sons. The guy is a bad a$$ to say the least.
