Carlson Gracie, Team Brightman in Naugatuck CT is now my new home for Jiujitsu training! I moved to Waterbury, CT June of 2018, since then this is primarily my new place of training drilling and honing my BJJ craft. I love my training partners as will as the young kids coming up under our Carlson Gracie banner here. It is a great place of structured teaching under Vincent Brightman with a motivating atmosphere. I specially appreciate the encouragement of creativity in your game. As long as I live in Waterbury Connecticut Carlson Gracie Team Brightman will be my home. Feel free to come down and check us out for a free class! I also cross train at many gyms in the Connecticut area of which I will be posting links to on this page.
The face new of Franklin Square MMA! Right of exit 15 on the Southern State Park way Ronin United is my new home. The Jiu Jitsu program here is ran by my long time coach, Black belt “Professor” Chris Manuel who is well known for his attention to detail and high level work ethic! They opened their doors late September of 2017 and is operating in full force offering Muay Thai, MMA, Wrestling and my favorite 2 hr Jiu Jitsu classes! The coaches here bring to the mat 20 plus years of experiences and multiple trained champions under their tutelage. This is a beautiful spacious facility with high quality equipment, tons of off street parking and a positive environment dedicated to honing your craft! This is a great academy to fit your schedule with classes offered 7 days a week and open mats 6 days a week! If you are in the Long Island area feel free to drop in and see what they are about! #RONINUNITED #COMEGETTHISWORK

This is a Renzo Gracie affiliated Academy in College Point, Queens NY! If you are looking to really excel your technique and training to the next stage, Ultimate MMA is a high level academy with excellent coaching and training partners who are always gamed! I had the honor of training here for a short period of time when my original gym closed its doors, the atmosphere at Ultimate was super welcoming and the training was very intense. Their BJJ program has a flexible schedule, mornings as well as evening, so you can surly get your mat time in whenever you are free. In addition to MMA, Muay Thai and BJJ they also offer Capoeira which I personally think is very cool. The facility is clean, very well lit and in a great accessible location, if you are in the White stone area of Queens be sure to drop in and pay these guys a visit! https://www.facebook.com/UltMMAAcademy/
