From the reviews

I saw an awesome review for the neighboring Flat Rock Grill that said that there was a Jiu Jitsu place nextdoor in which the likes of Tom Hardy, Keanu Reeves, and Nicholas Cage might have visited and my interest was officially peaked. I stopped in for a class and WOW, I was blown away.

★★★★★ — Joseph, Feb 2023

I was in Niles for work and looking for a place to train. I decided to train at Grapple House Bjj, and I could not have been happier with that decision. The coaches were top-notch, the facility was clean, and the members were very welcoming.

★★★★★ — Patrick, Oct 2022

Best place in the Edwardsburg/Granger area to learn and train to jiu jitsu for beginners and seasoned practitioners under the guidance of legendary black belt Mack Daley & Kroyler Gracie. A great environment for anyone interested in self-defense & a top notch workout, highly recommended.

★★★★★ — Dan, Feb 2020

Your first BJJ class at Grapple House BJJ

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.
