313 Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

I am a beginner who trains at a academy north of the city close to my home, but work downtown. I decided to drop in for some training at an afternoon class at 313 BJJ. I was very impressed. Professor Lima gave some great instruction on shoulder lock sequences from half-guard. It was followed by some very challenging sparing. Lima's students are being very well served by him and are very good. The facilities are also top notch, very clean, and very modern looking (but with some old Detroit charm) with multiple showers (with soap and shampoo provided, which saves you the big hassle of bringing and storing your own in your gear bag -little thing but big plus imho) nice locker room, and multiple restrooms that are separate from the showers. Look forward to dropping in again. Would recommend to anyone who lives or works in the Motor City.

I trained a handful of times at this gym in August of this year. Friendly and welcoming group of guys/gals, and more importantly tough group of practitioners. This gym trains at pretty high/ intense level but it’s also a safe environment. Coach Zach and Byron were awesome. If you’re in the area I highly recommend visiting this gym.

Traveled to Detroit for work and dropped into 313 BJJ and it was a warm welcoming environment. Got my butt kicked by a BB in the Gi and got to train no Gi as well. This gym has a strong BJJ gym culture 10/10 recommend.

I was visiting a friend in Southfield and stopped in Wednesday night for the evening Gi class, taught by Byron Barnard. First and foremost, the atmosphere was extremely welcoming. The gym was clean, staff helpful, and everyone on the mats was super friendly. Everyone was really good at Jiu Jitsu as well. The class itself was great. Byron is an excellent instructor. Clear, concise instruction, layered detail, and was really helpful during the drilling portions, taking time to address everyone as needed. Would highly recommend anyone in the area checking 313 out. Thank you guys for having me down there.

I’m a 38 year old female starting Jiu Jitsu for my first time. Been going for several months now. Not knowing what I was getting into, I have felt very welcomed and comfortable at 313 BJJ. It is very clean and well maintained. Outstanding coaches. Mamoon is great and Fabio is very patient and detailed. I highly recommend coming to 313 and we need more women 😊
