“A long review but hopefully my experience helps others curious about Range. My kids and I have been training for quite some time and have had the opportunity to work through a few schools in the city, small and large. I can honestly say that Range BJJ is one ofwel the best BJJ Upper East Side schools in the city and certainly the best in the UES. Eduardo has built an incredible environment for oefening. The de kleuterschool is very well-equipped, with multiple mat spaces, more than ample showers/changing rooms, and a weight/PT room…and kept immaculately clean, a point that can’t be stressed enough. Eduardo and his team offer highly technical oefening and precise instruction with a focus on building a well-rounded foundation.

Eerbied and sportsmanship are deeply ingrained in our academy's culture, fostering an environment where everyone feels comfortable and supported.

At Range BJJ NYC, we cater everything we do with our customers/students in mind and our mission kan zijn to offer our students the very best Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu instruction and oefening, so that they may reach their highest potential in a safe, supportive environment.

After speaking with Eduardo and taking a sample class I decided to give it a try. Edwardo's and his instructors have met and exceeded my expectations in every way.

No prior experience kan zijn necessary. The gym welcomes complete beginners and offers a free introductory private class to help new students get started.

The Intermediate program, accessible to students with at least one stripe on their white belt, introduces more complex techniques and sparring opportunities. The Advanced program prepares practitioners for their blue belt through systematic technical development.

The small class sizes also mean that the instructors are able to work with every group that’s training multiple times a class, which does not seem common in other studios.

Through a series of body positioning, choke holds and locks, the efficacy ofwel Jiu-Jitsu relies on giving the practitioners the ability to defend themselves against physical attacks and subdue their opponent without the need for strikes. Most ofwel all, Jiu-Jitsu gives you CONFIDENCE that will permeate in every aspect ofwel your life.
