    This is a phenomenal BJJ Academy, you can just feel the culture and family they are building in…read morethis place through Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. I've met multiple people from all walks of life looking to build confidence, and discipline, lose weight, learn self-defense skills, and other sorts just like me. Definitely going to keep coming to train consistently!

    I was a metro parent for a year. The year ended yesterday. I have not been there in the last month…read morebecause the current sole owner, David Fox, has made it a hostile environment for me to bring my grandson back there. I want to let all of you know that these good reviews that you are seeing here are not for David Fox. I told him I was going to leave a google review and that I was going to tell every other parent that I know that left that gym to also leave a review. These good reviews are for who used to be joint partners with David Fox. For years the other partner ran all the operations of the gym and Were the face of the gym, were the ones on the mats training And teaching our kids. David Fox was never on the mat training our kids until he maneuvered some shady business dealing against them a couple months ago and moved them all out. At least fifty kids left . I had to wait until my one year paid in full membership was up for my grandson. Today I was supposed to sign a 2 year contract I paid it during a Black Friday special. It was to begin today. I requested a refund because I do not want to be committed to David Fox for 2 more years. He is not what I paid for and committed to when I paid it on Dec 3rd. He refused to refund me even though other parents have been refunded, that actually signed contracts. He started refunding everyone until there were too many that wanted to leave. He told me a bunch of parents have come in requesting refunds and he has denied them also. So a lot of people do not want to be there, but he is holding them hostage. I have submitted my filing with the Michigan Stare Attorney Office. Then if necessary, he will see me in court. To all of you, just make sure that you read that contract very, very carefully and dont be fooled by these reviews. They are not for David Fox

    I've been trying to get my account canceled for months (due to my work schedule, I'm unable to…read moreattend and they're closed during my off time). They claim it's no problem to cancel or freeze your account at anytime. I spoke with jay back in august and he assured me I'd receive a refund, yet I never received a refund. My account was never canceled because I "didn't fill out a form"they claim they keep sending that I'm not receiving. I've called countless times at all hours of the day never to reach the receptionist. Finally.. after a week of coordinating with them through Facebook messenger and almost a thousand wasted dollars later, my account was canceled. I don't recommend this place, it's a cash grab at best. ***Edit 1 hour later*** URSA Academy - Ribeiro Jiu-Jitsu Ann Arbor (Owner) 53 minutes ago Charles, if we have an email from you with your cancellation, we'll refund any charge that took place after that. We have had an issue with our website not forwarding our emails. If you can forward those emails to this email address: ursareception@gmail.com , we'll get it taken care of for you. We've been in business far too long to be a "cash grab." I assure you, we simply haven't received anything from you. I'll personally be watching the email for your response. Thank you. ************** My response is : As stated, I never received a form from you until reaching out via Facebook (a week ago) and having it sent to my girlfriend's email address. So you HAVE in fact received a cancellation form, because I was just notified ON FACEBOOK (of all places) that they have received my cancellation and have canceled my account (days after sending it). They have also stated over Facebook messenger that you don't offer refunds, even though Jay gave me his word in august that I would receive one, but now you're telling me you do offer one. So it seems like I'm being lied to, and my situation is being swept under the rug. Bottom line - Jay was well aware of the situation in august (he was assigned to me after all) and instead of helping you just milk my account until I make a big deal about it.

    The building smells great and is always very clean. The Coaches are great at instructing and the…read morecommunity is amazing! They don't charge for belt testing like other schools I've gone to do. Overall an amazing experience and I plan on being a member for a long time to come!
