Great environment with good instructors. Esteban’s fundamental class on Tuesday’s showed great details, my 13 year old nephew really enjoyed and was able to follow along. The owner, Casey, taught a class during the day that was full of good details on how to break an arm. Great experience, 5/5, highly recommend.

Great training spot! Super nice people, there to help and teach. Not pick on and destroy or to make fun of. You can feel safe and comfortable and learn a lot!

Was in the area visiting family so I inquired about coming in to train, I quickly received a call back from Casey inviting me to a class. It was a great training class and learned a great guard pass. Everyone at the gym was friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend training here if you live in the area or are visiting the area

I visited the Rochester area for work and needed a place to train. I reached out via email and Casey immediately emailed me back and invited me to come in and train. The class was great, the instruction was superb, and everyone was kind and welcoming. If youre looking to get started in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu or just looking to drop in for a class then this is the place for you!

The gym was great. Everybody was welcoming and the head instructor was a badass. Great class and great technique. CLEAN. It was a good experience and would recommend it if you are in the area.

Great teachers. Great students. Good variety in training schedules offered. Reasonable tuition. Overall extremely supportive and fun environment. I wouldve been a lifer here if I hadnt moved for work.

I dropped by here for a few days while visiting family.Super clean facility that has a nice atmosphere to it. The coaches compete at a high level and are very attentive. They want to see your jiu jitsu improve and I can tell they care about what theyre doing. Im looking forward to revisiting:)

Responsive and knowledgeable instruction. Came from a smaller gym and was instantly impressed by the challenge and knowledge that everyone presented. Wide variety of belts from new white belts to seasoned black and brown belts. Everybody is willing to help out, and there is always time to get your questions answered. Tons of unique perspectives that make the gym culture inviting and interesting to engage with. Plus, its nice knowing I am getting the best instruction in the area with multiple time slots to train from day to day. Would recommend to anybody!

Dropped in from Milwaukee. Detailed instructions paired with professional practitioners.A good time for all.

Great place to learn bjj. The coaches take their time to make sure you understand the concepts and are approacheable to get more details later. The students respect and take care of each other but also help push you to be your best.

Head Instructor Casey Lamb is a world class athlete, world class instructor and a world class human being! Classes were well structured and progressed at an even pace. He always gave us the option of staying late to review anything we had in mind. I walked in known as a high caliber striker and walked out with solid BJJ and MMA fundamentals when I moved out of the state. Highly recommended!!!

Ive trained at several schools in the area with the same specialty, and this is by far the worst in terms of the quality of instruction, and moral character of staff. Stuck between a busy work and school schedule I decided to train here, and I regret it. There is no plan here for the students and the classes are boring with a lack of proper description and guidance for techniques and drills. They originally teamed up with an instructor from the South as he Wasnt Brazilian and they dont seem to respect traditional martial arts or other cultures. They raised my monthly fee without consulting me towards the end of my time with them and began charging 25.00 dollars more than I had originally agreed to . The teachers here are more or less just bullies and will forget half of what happens, details to techniques, and quite possibly what they ate for breakfast.

My children have been coming to this location for close to two years. The owner and coach is very hands on with them making sure they learn each step. They also work well with teaching them how to safely and effectively do each technique.

I have wanted to join a BJJ gym for a while and I could not be happier that I found Synthesis! Casey and everyone have made me feel very welcome. I cannot wait to get back in there!

Absolutely love this place! High level training with a great coach and great group of people. I will definitely continue training here.

A great place to train and learn. A very welcoming environment and the instruction is excellent!

I was up in the area on vacation looking for a place to keep up my training and was lucky to find a school run by a world champion. I had an excellent time training here. The instructors were knowledgeable and eager to help, and all the students were incredibly welcoming. If you want to train in upstate NY, theres no better place than Synthesis BJJ.

No frills BJJ gym with great coaches and students. Glad they offer early AM classes as well as mid-morning and PM classes to make it easy to get sessions in during the week. I’m a newbie and Synthesis has a great spectrum of students; white to black belts who are all willing help you in the journey. Many BJJ gyms out there, this one is worth checking out if you’re brand new or been practicing for a long time. Also, many students compete...and WIN.

This place is awesome. I am in town for business and was looking for a place to train and I hit the jackpot. Casey is a great instructor and everyone was so welcoming. If youre in town visiting or if you live in Rochester you wont find a better place to train.

Love this gym. Made huge strides as a martial artist and as a person during my time training here. The coaches are excellent and diverse in their approaches to Jiu Jitsu and make you feel welcome. Great gym and culture for all skill levels

Best gym in rochester hands down.

Great teaching, good training, and welcoming people. Id recommend this gym to anyone that comes to the area.

Thank you so much for the hospitality and training session tonight. Esteban was awesome and super thorough in his instruction. I learned a ton and felt welcomed. Definitely going to return the next time I’m in town.

Every time I visit Rochester, I always make it a point to drop in here and train. World class training from every instructor here. Extremely welcoming and friendly vibe here from everyone that trains. Theres a lot of really talented folk here that train as well so I always come away learning something.To top it all off, its an RMNU school so you have access to instruction coming from one of the best in the world.

Visiting Rochester and I found this gym to drop in at. Casey was very welcoming and taught a fantastic class. The environment was very friendly and the rolls were competitive. Looking forward to dropping in again next month. I highly recommend this gym if you live in Rochester and you are looking for a good gym to train at!

Great coaches and members. They care about your progress and help you really understand the finer details.

Greatest gym in Rochester, the environment is great, all the coaches are great teachers and are willing to help you improve. Started here with no skills and immediately was welcomed in! Thanks Synthesis!

Some of the best instruction, training partners, and culture around. Everyone is welcome to come and advance their skill set and I always look forward to an evening training session at Synthesis!

Amazing workout happy that I went here. Getting into jiu jitsu.

Synthesis BJJ is the best around. Great instructors, great atmosphere, great people all around!

I only got to train one day at Synthesis while in town for work but I really enjoyed the session.I attended a gi class and had a great time drilling and learning some leg locks. Everyone there was very welcoming and had that camaraderie Ive come to love about training BJJ.Sometimes as a drop in schools can be dismissive and not really care about visitors but not the case here. Casey was quick to reply to my emails before I showed up and was incredibly kind. If youre looking for a BJJ school in the area Id definitely recommend Synthesis.

Best place to roll on Rochester.Casey knows how to train fundamentals.The group is incredibly inviting to all levels of BJJ.If you are considering learn BJJ make this place your home away from home.

Great facility, terrific welcoming, helpful, diligent, and skillful students and instructors. Lots of class offerings. I love training at Synthesis whenever Im visiting my family in the Rochester area.

Cant say enough good things about Synthesis BJJ! Want to learn super solid technique and have instructors help you develop your own individual game? Come here! Prices are very reasonable, crowd is great, everyone wants to learn and we all leave our ego at the door.

Was in town visiting and stopped in for a day- everyone was very welcoming and Coach Casey was great. Would recommend!

No better place to train in Rochester. The calm, warm and welcoming environment at Synthesis is unmatched in any gym Ive been to. The combined experience of the instruction at the price point makes it a no brainer.

Great environment to learn BJJ. The instructors know the art and the students are welcoming/challenge you to meet whatever goals you have. Whether you are competitive, want to learn self defense or just want to get in shape, Synthesis will help you meet your goals!

Great gym to train. Quality is a must, everyone is really nice and supportive.

I walked into this gym without knowing anyone and they were very welcoming. Since then, they’ve become friends. One of the instructors is literally an Olympian. The others are amazing as well. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu at Synthesis is by far the best mental and physical workout in the city. 5 starts because there wasn’t a way to choose more!

Great coaching, and welcoming environment!

I have trained at a lot of different gyms, I have seen the good and the bad in our sport (been training for 8 years) and synthesis is a top notch gym. Great coaches, great team members and a great facility. The new affiliation with Robson Moura is also great as it will only serve to grow their program. I have only participated in their BJJ and Wrestling classes and both have been great. Highly recommend coming in and trying out a class if you are looking to start BJJ or looking to improve your game (this gym has done wonders for my take downs and top control).

Great atmosphere and flexible training schedule. You could roll for 30 mins or three hours on a regular night. Highly acclaimed instructors with BJJ, MMA, Wrestling and Kickboxing back rounds. Everyone Ive rolled with has been nothing but helpful. They have a free week trail and discounts for LEO and VETs.

Couldnt ask for a better environment. Ive improved drastically over my time training and have made good friends as well.

Terrific place to study Martial Arts. Not only do the instructors possess an immense wealth of knowledge and skills, they are great guys, as are the people who train here. Whether youre new to BJJ, or if you want to find a new place to train, look no further.

The best instructors, the best group of men and women as training partners, and the best culture and environment around.

Same great instructors, bigger location and closer to home :-)
