From the reviews

I have trained at many academies, and have never been in a nicer, classier facility. The stunning facility is only surpassed by the quality of instruction found here. Alan Teo is a first class instructor and stand up guy.

★★★★★ — Gail, Nov 2013

Great instructors and people. My son and I have been training at Teo's bjj for a couple of months now and wonderful things are happening. I mean, many times you get to have 6-7+ black belts on the mats. Not only that, but the quality of bjj knowledge your mind absorbs is mind blowing.

★★★★★ — Rene, Sep 2016

Nice & clean facility, excellent instructors, and awesome training partners. This place has a really great, welcoming vibe. Definitely the place to dip your toe in the water if you're considering trying jiu jitsu or judo. They offer some boxing and muay thai as well!

★★★★★ — Ilias, Jun 2021

Teo’s gym is a great gym The atmosphere and the students makes the gym welcoming and I enjoyed training at the gym and developing my Bjj and judo skills. I enjoyed the judo program and also the BJJ one.

New to muay thai? Start at Renzo Gracie Fort Lee

Renzo Gracie Fort Lee comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale the conditioning to you. Second, you won't be thrown into sparring — reputable gyms build fundamentals (stance, footwork, and the basic strikes of the "art of eight limbs") for weeks before any contact, and sparring stays optional. Third, all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.

Your first muay thai class at Renzo Gracie Fort Lee

Nervous about walking into a muay thai gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics on pads and bags — not fighting. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: shorts or athletic wear and a t-shirt; you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and hand wraps if you have them — many gyms lend gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves, wraps, a mouthguard, and shin guards. Sparring is optional and comes later, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.

Muay thai is a contact sport. Ease in, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
