Michael
"Incredible environment, although I have only been coming on and off for 2 months, I have noticed a change in my cardio and how I move, I think it has taught me to be more aware of where my body is at all times, Martin a nice and very good instructor and the people there are great as well, looking forward to coming back soon"
James Kelly
"RGW is an awesome gym with an amazing atmosphere, professor Martin is a wealth of knowledge who will take the time to watch you do your technique and help u master it down to the last detail. If you ask him a question about BJJ he will answer it very well thought and detailed. He will even at times give you certain drills to do specific to your needs and short comings in BJJ. He’s a coach who will take 5 minutes to watch you do your technique and tell u what to do step by step. They also often and regularly compete in BJJ competitions which in the last year brought home a ton of medals from different competitions over New York Coach Matt is the Muay Thai coach for RGW who is a very experienced striker who has trained under very talented striking coaches. His workouts and classes are very intense and will have you sweating and out of breath, he will also take the time to make sure you get every technique down to the last detail. He’s also a very funny guy who will make you laugh as you’re getting in a good workout. I would recommend RGW to anyone who wants to learn self defense and get a good workout while doing it"

"Good instructors and clean gym. Good mix of people who want to train hard or casually. They have an upstairs and downstairs mat space. There's a laundromat right next door, so one would be able to wash their dirty gear right after class"
Urban Ivy
