From the reviews

Wonderful place to train Jiu jitsu. The people are amazing, kind and competitive. As a female, I feel so respected and safe in this space. Hands down, I recommend this place to any lady who wants to learn how to protect herself. The coaches are top notch.

★★★★★ — Jessica, Feb 2022

I have never met a facility that is as close knit and professional as Assembly. As a woman I have never felt anything other than completely comfortable being instructed here. The environment is incredibly welcoming and friendly.

★★★★★ — Ariana, Nov 2021

The facility is clean and orderly. Everyone that we have met or encountered there has been nothing but friendly and welcoming. My two young daughters, myself and my husband all train here. Even if we take a break from training, it feels like home walking back through the doors.

★★★★★ — Stephanie, Feb 2022

Hands down, the best jiu jitsu training in Michigan. Welcoming environment, with something to offer everyone; from the awesome youth program, casual practitioners, fitness enthusiasts, or high level competitive athletes, you’ll find it at Assembly. Proud to be part of this team.

New to BJJ? Start at Assembly Jiu-Jitsu

Assembly Jiu-Jitsu comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. If you've never rolled or set foot on a mat, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or flexible to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale the intensity to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard rolling — reputable gyms build fundamentals (positions, escapes, and basic submissions) for weeks, live rolling eases in gradually, and tapping early keeps every roll safe. Third, all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out, and leave your ego at the door. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.

Your first BJJ class at Assembly Jiu-Jitsu

Nervous about walking into a BJJ gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic positions and escapes with a partner — not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — many gyms lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gi (or a rashguard and shorts for no-gi) and a mouthguard. Live rolling eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.

BJJ is a contact sport. Ease in, tap early and often, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
