BJJ in Ridgewood

Ridgewood straddles the Queens-Brooklyn border — technically in Queens but sharing a neighborhood identity with Bushwick and Brooklyn to its south. The L and M trains provide direct links to Williamsburg and Manhattan. Two academies serve this rapidly gentrifying neighborhood.

The Jiu Jitsu Lounge is an independent academy with a focused grappling program. American Killer Bees NYC, now operating as 5 Boro Fighthaus, is a well-known tri-state area name with a competition-minded no-gi and MMA orientation. For residents wanting additional options, the Kings Combat chain (Williamsburg, Elmhurst, Forest Hills) is accessible via the L or M train. Adult unlimited in Ridgewood typically runs $160–$230/mo.
