The UGC is the premier grappling and boxing gym of the Capital Region, dedicated to staying at the forefront of the martial arts world.
I been to multiple gyms over the past 6-7 years . The 10% discount for first responders and welcoming atmosphere is amazing . I see some of the reviews complaining about the new system but I’m sure the owners had to adjust to their students and schedules . The instructor was a legit black belt that starts standing up as jiujitsu should be. Also answers questions on technique and shows you how to do certain things my first experience was great I definitely will attend again

Mikey is very knowledgeable and cultivates a great atmosphere for learning jiu-jitsu. He is very observant of his students and will help you develop any technique he sees you need help with, even if it wasn't in the lesson for that day. The drills at UGC are very dynamic, allowing both partners to train offense and defense simultaneously, instead of one parter simply acting as a dummy. Compared to other types of jiu-jitsu drills this is more fun, more efficient, and a better workout.

I have been training at this gym for a little while. I had payed for 1000 of my hard earned money then a few days later due to their internal conflict the changed leadership in the gym. I reached out for my refund since and the owner said I just would have to provide a receipt. I provided the information requested and I have been ghosted ever since. I see posts about them reopening back up and reached back out about refund and go no response. I knew the new owners not extremely well but though they were decent people and didn’t think that this would happen to me. They have not reached out to resolve my request after expressing that they would in the beginning. It such a shame that all this happened being the place before this changed had such a good group of guys who came to train there and was only going to get better. If you value your time money and a little bit of honesty I advise to avoid this gym.

I’ve been attending upstate grappling club since it just about opened. The instructors have all been extremely knowledgeable and push the students to work hard while offering a friendly environment to train in. Although it is a new school in the area it’s filled with a large amount of experience from the instructors, and seeing the success the school is having in competitions is a testament to that instruction along with the students hard work. Highly recommend
