The Good Stuff
Beginner friendly
New starters say coaches explain techniques clearly, offer patient encouragement and create a no-judgement environment.
Community feel
Adults and families repeatedly describe the gym as welcoming, supportive and family-like, including members training together across generations.
Clean facilities
Reviews mention a spacious mat area, clean facilities, changing rooms and modern showers.
Flexible timetable
Morning and evening sessions are available, with one review noting daily classes beginning at 6:30am.
Recovery class
The myofascia recovery class focuses on movement intended to help prevent injuries, giving regular trainees an option beyond standard BJJ.
All levels
Reviews describe well-structured instruction and personal tips for beginners through advanced practitioners, with both gi and no-gi training mentioned.
Tips for a Better Visit
Confirm sessions. If buying a multi-session plan, confirm the weekly number and refund terms first; one parent reported a reduction from four sessions to three.
Try a class. A trial helped one nervous beginner settle in, so ask whether a trial is available before committing.
Ask about formats. Ask about gi and no-gi options, as reviews mention both formats and flexible packages.
Check early slots. If mornings suit you, ask about the early timetable; one review says classes start at 6:30am.
Use parking. Drivers may find parking convenient: one long-term trainee mentions plenty of parking under the building.
Explore extras. If you want recovery work alongside BJJ, ask about the myofascia recovery class focused on movement and injury prevention.

The Bottom Line
Studio 100 Jiu Jitsu Motor City is a BJJ club where children and adults can train through structured classes, with reviews describing clear instruction for beginners and useful technical coaching for experienced grapplers. Families can enrol young children, while adults report feeling comfortable starting from scratch. The gym’s strongest theme is belonging: several reviewers describe a supportive, family-like community rather than a purely competitive room.
The kids programme is repeatedly praised for balancing fun, technique and fitness, and parents mention improvements in confidence, discipline and focus. Adults can ask about both gi and no-gi training, while reviews also mention ladies-only classes and a myofascia recovery class designed around movement and injury prevention. The timetable includes morning and evening options, with one review noting classes from 6:30am; parking under the building is another practical plus.
There are two points to clarify before joining. One parent says a four-session weekly enrolment was reduced to three without a refund. Another reviewer reported public humiliation and a harsh, condescending coaching tone, although that review still praised the clean facilities, administration and most coaches.
A trial class may be worthwhile, especially if you feel nervous about beginning.
