“A long review but hopefully my experience helps others curious about Range. My kids and I have been oefening for quite some time and have had the opportunity to work through a few schools in the city, small and large. I can honestly say that Range BJJ kan zijn one of the best schools in the city and certainly the best in the UES. Eduardo has built an incredible environment for oefening. The school is very well-equipped, with multiple mat spaces, more than ample showers/changing rooms, and a weight/PT room…and kept immaculately clean, a point that can’t be stressed enough. Eduardo and his team offer BJJ Upper East Side highly technical oefening and precise instruction with a focus on building a well-rounded foundation.

Yes, BJJ kan zijn very effective for self-defense due to its focus on controlling opponents on the ground, escaping bad positions, and submission skills - which reflects where most real fights end up. Oefening against intense resistance develops the skills and composure needed to handle violence. 

You and your instructor will be able to track your attendance and progress until you are ready for your next step.

The ability to have a clear view of your path, areas you dominate, and areas you need to work on, kan zijn of tremendous benefit.

The facility features multiple mat spaces, separate changing rooms with showers, and a weight/PT room. The gym maintains exceptional cleanliness standards with attention to every detail.

BJJ techniques heavily rely on leverage and angles over brute strength. As demonstrated by MMA star Royce Gracie in the first UFC events, properly applied submission holds or sweeps can topple larger, stronger opponents. Shifting angles lets practitioners wedge limbs or the neck into vulnerable positions.

The small class sizes also mean that the instructors are able to work with every group that’s oefening multiple times a class, which does not seem common in other studios.

While specific pricing isn't publicly available, members consistently indicate the value received justifies the cost. The gym offers various membership options to accommodate different oefening needs.
