I am so disappointed with this place. They made it obvious that they didn't care about my time.

Verdict: Great school…read more Cons: - Things are continually changing. The school is growing, they're trying new things all the time, adding new things and dropping old things. You can be pretty positive that brazilian jiu-jitsu and crossfit aren't going anywhere, but the schedule might change. And other things like birthday parties, those might end. It's in flux month by month. - You can't spar with the blackbelt. She got a major injury a few years ago and now she can teach but not compete. (This isn't a very big problem, see below.) Pros: - The people are awesome. Humble and friendly. Even the buff dudes are just having fun and trying to help you - and everyone - improve. - There's jiu jitsu for every level: Little bitty kids learn the basic movements and play fun games. Big kids and teenagers get the full jiu-jitsu experience, but only with people their own size. There's intro jiu-jitsu for adults in the morning, regular jiu-jitsu classes in the evenings, "open mat" for sparring and troubleshooting, and even a "competition team" class for the really intense and serious training. - I said you can't spar with the blackbelt. Maybe that sounds like you're missing out on a challenge or something. Haha. Don't worry about that, even the intermediate players will hold you down and tap you out... without sweating, while they're having a conversation with somebody else. There's plenty, plenty of challenging training partners. Wait til you meet Strong Josh. It's like trying to fight a van. - There's a bunch of stuff besides jiu-jitsu! Crossfit is the other big one, with like 4 classtimes per day. But there's also karate, a tanning bed, a massage therapist who's awesome (if you've ever had a massage and wished the person were stronger, here's your chance. Jana works on almost nothing but athletes, and she'll loosen you up no matter who you are.) "Ninja camp" for little kids, some faith events, and other stuff too. And always trying something new. So overall, what a great place. Good place to get yourself in shape, good place to meet quality people, good place for your kids to make friends. Try it out.

My boys are getting ready and reminding ME that it's time for class. It's not a lot of memorizing forms, or kicking bags. These kids get on the mat and really learn how to handle themselves. After the first month we are really pleased with what our kids are learning and that they are truly enjoying themselves. There are several upcoming tournaments available for the students to join in. They offer adult classes and even offer womens self defense each month. I attended the first class. The class was only $10 and made for a great ladies night out. We all left feeling more confident and comfortable. This place is growing and I can't wait for our boys to grow along with it.

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.
