A place where I consider a second home, Professor Igor along with the rest of the alchemy students are some of the best and knowledgable people to learn from and be around! If you want to get a great physical workout while also growing mentally this place is the place to go!
Posted 9 months agoI can’t say enough great things about alchemy ! The instructors are knowledgeable, patient, and truly care about each student’s progress. The atmosphere is welcoming whether you’re a beginner or more experienced, and the community feels like a family. Training here has not only improved my skills and fitness, but also boosted my confidence. Highly recommend to anyone looking to learn jiu-jitsu in a supportive and motivating environment!
Posted 11 months agoTraining here has been an amazing experience! The environment is very welcoming, the training partners are always supportive and encouraging, and Professor Igor is excellent — he teaches with patience, skill, and motivation. I truly feel part of a family on the mats. Highly recommend to anyone looking to improve their Jiu-Jitsu and make great friends along the way.
Posted 11 months agoI've trained in martial arts for most of my life. Alchemy is easily the best school that I've trained at. The environment is very warm and welcoming, with an emphasis on learning. No egos here. Igor (the owner) is a very kind and humble man. He embodies all of the positive traits that a martial artist should have.
I've been training here for about 18 months, and I love it. The head coach is experienced and invested in helping students learn and improve their game, and there's a wealth of knowledge to be found in the upper belts that train here, who share the same mentality. The gym is supported by a strong foundation of new students looking to grow, with an underlying sense of community based on respect, sportmanship, and a shared desire amongst the students and coaches to better themselves. A typical class consists of warmups, technique drills, and live sparring, with open mat sessions available weekly. The gym has a healthy presence in the competition scene, and training is a good mix of foundational and advanced technique with added emphasis on competition prep leading up to tournaments as people sign up. Whether your goals are simply to learn the sport or to test yourself against others, you'll be set up for success here. Alchemy's a great place to hone your game, and a welcoming place to learn BJJ as a new student. If you're looking for a gym I really couldn't recommend it enough.
Tl;dr try it out! If you're looking to be humbled in a welcoming and supportive environment, then this is your gym. Alchemy Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu takes what is an intimidating sport and turns it into a comprehensive and intrinsically rewarding experience. I have been with this gym for the past six months, first showing up not knowing what to expect. I find each class to be unique and challenging from week to week. My teachers and fellow teammates are considerate and very understanding of each other, constantly looking to help each other out and make each other better. The culture surrounding this is an added bonus. You'll find that the struggle is real. Thankfully, any drill may be tailored to the student's own skill level, whether they are starting out day one with zero experience or showing up with years of training. This makes for an overall enjoyable learning experience for something that may otherwise be incredibly frustrating. I highly, highly recommend taking the time and opportunity to show up for the two free classes Professor Igor offers. The experience is completely unlike anything else. You get back what you put into it. Keep showing up and be amazed by the progress and results.
Second family …you learn so much in every aspect
Highly recommend coming here, no matter your level. Best gym I’ve trained at. Great teaching and family environment.
First Jiu Jitsu gym I have joined, and I have nothing but good things to say. Great gym. Igor is a great teacher and the atmosphere overall is awesome. Everyone there is patient with the new teammates. I am excited to keep learning!
Been training here since 2020, hands down the best of the best. Amazing teachers, best choice I’ve ever made was start this BJJ journey with this amazing group that has become family 🤙🏽
Great place to train jiu jitsu. Few months ago I moved to Clinton area and this is one of the great jiu jitsu team I met in this area. Very welcoming environment and great people with good mindset.
Great place to train with kind people, great environment to learn and obtain knowledge about grappling and jiu jitsu
Very knowledgeable professors and great environment overall, can't recommend it enough!
I can't say enough great things about this gym. Igor is a top-caliber instructor on and off the mats. There's also a great culture at Alchemy and everyone is extremely welcoming, helpful and friendly. There's a class option for any skill and age level as well. The only regret I have is not joining sooner. If you're thinking of signing up for BJJ, stop by for a class and see for yourself!
Great group of people of all body types and experience levels to train with and learn from. Just show up, the first hit is free!
Fantastic group to learn jujitsu with.
This was my first time joining a Jiu jitsu gym, Igor & Rhonda make everyone feel so welcoming like a family! The women’s class is amazing and they really take their time with you to make sure you understand so everyone will be able to move at the same pace.
Great bunch of people with a wealth of knowledge to share!
I moved up from Jersey and needed a school to continue my training. I'm blessed and couldn't be more joyous to have found this place. Not only do they take the time to adjust what works best for your Jiu Jitsu, they also bond and follow a close family orientation. Welcoming everyone and anyone that would like to try out, start, or continue their Jiu Jitsu journey. OSS. 🤙🏽
Amazing family I encourage you to try this lifestyle
Having never trained a martial art before, I had no idea what to expect when starting training here. I definitely did not expect to meet people that I now call my family and best friends. The community and family aspect of this gym is amazing. Not to mention you learn some pretty cool ways to force someone to take a nap. In all seriousness, Igor is an awesome coach and the entire team is full of cool, caring, and fun people. Without the Alchemy team I would not be the person I am today!
Alchemy is a fantastic place to do Jiu Jitsu. Professor Igor is an excellent coach and a great guy. Everybody who trains there is incredibly kind and helpful. If you are looking for BJJ gym I couldn’t recommend Alchemy more. 🤙
You wont find a better school in Central MA than Alchemy jiu jitsu. Its not just a team, its a family. Great instructors and even better teamates helping and pushing you to get better each and everyday. Come check it out!
The best decision I ever made in my life was attending BJJ classes! Come down for a free class and join the fastest growing martial art in the world!
Great family atmosphere great people and awesome knowledgeable instructors
If you are looking for a place to learn and progress your bjj, look no further. Great coaching, and welcoming atmosphere. Everyone on the team is helpful and they make you feel like family. Come check it out!
My day one Jiu Jitsu academy! I’ve been here for two years and can say Igor is a great professor and the curriculum is always a refreshing update to your arsenal of BJJ technique. Highly recommended for grapplers of all skill levels!
Great place to learn and train and Igor is an awesome guy to learn from. Lots of great people and the classes are a real workout. Can't recommend enough.
I have trained at many martial arts gyms and would highly recommend Alchemy to anyone in the area. Whether you’re just staring out or an experienced martial artist.
I’ve been training at Alchemy from when they opened, and Igor has been a great coach. It’s a friendly, positive environment, and I would encourage those interested in BJJ to begin their journey here.
Alchemy Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is by far one of the most comfortable schools to learn self defense. The academy’s instructor is very kind and experienced in the art of a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. The students there are very helpful and are not aggressive as other schools. Most definitely worth looking into if you’re interested in self defense or self discipline. 10/10 from me much obliged. Oss
Great team! Great Coaching and friendly people. Nothing but love for alchemy
After being there for 4 years I don’t recommend here at all. Bullies, and will use your personal life against you. Very cliquey. No girls (just about) for a reason.
