NYMAG (New York Martial Arts Gym) - MMA, Jiu-jitsu, Muay Thai Boxing

STAY AWAY!! They are scam artist !! They Used to have some talented instructors over there but now don't waste your money! They have a habit of lying to members to get them to sign longer contracts and when you try to get out of your membership they will keep billing you ! And forget about trying to get in touch with some one in charge the owners are scum and they will ignore you as soon as you try and complain or cancel your membership. I personally have left 15 emails and repeated phone messages on there voice mail (because they don't answer their phone at all) over the past month and only the first email was replied to asking me what my problem was once I told them they have gone out of there way to ignore me! WORST GYM EVER! THEY CAN'T KEEP STUDENTS OR INSTRUCTORS BECAUSE OF HOW SHADY THEY ARE! What ever you do don't listen to a word they say they will lie to you just to make a buck. I WOULD REALLY BE SURPRISED IF THEY DON'T CLOSE WITH HOW THINGS ARE RUN OVER THERE!

Agree 1000% with the comment below this. Place is a very big ripoff and will never get your money back. I paid 375.00 for three class and they keep billing. The place smells like it has not been cleaned in over 2 years. I had to wait outside for my son the place smelled so bad. DO NOT SIGN A CONTRACT, YOU WILL BE STUCK FOR LIFE NO MATTER WHAT THEY SAY. New windsor has nothing except a mat on the floor. THEY SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES FOR CALL THIS A GYM

I read the most recent reviews here after finding this location by accident and decided I'd take a look for myself, These people are obviously upset and so I'll be giving a first impression type of review as someone observing 2 adult Jujitsu classes at the New Windsor Gym. I'll try to note red flags, areas that could be improved and good points. Price Just as a note of Jerry Simon I'm not sure how he paid 375 for 3 classes so I assume they must of been 1 on 1 classes since the current price ranges from 49.99-74.99 for two weeks unlimited classes depending on the type of contract you sign. I hope he can elaborate on that more clearly. The current listed prices compared to other places is actually good value. Contract-Red Flag I'm suspicious of any school with contracts. I've had bad experiences with even short stays at schools from other states. (I move a lot due to work) I can't hardly fault them for it because they have to make money to stay open, But I'm wary of lazy instructors taking it easy or owners lowering standards because they think they've locked people in. - The biggest eye brow raiser right off the bat is they wouldn't allow me to take the contract with me so I could look it over on my own time. Thus I'm having to recite everything I say about the contract from memory and reading it over once. -The contract noted if you want out you have to write to a specific address...not email. This makes me scratch my head and feel very defensive. So stopping payments may require you contacting the bank to stop charges if this is as bad as it looks. Note: I truly wish I had the form so I could better write this section of my impression with more confidence. For this reason I would suggest taking the time to look it over yourself if you stop to see the place and don't allow them to rush signing it either. Equipment They don't have a lot. A mat, striking pads, gloves for boxing, jump ropes. This isn't a weight lifting gym so don't expect large amounts of stuff but the building is fairly small so don't expect rings or sandbags like larger gyms either. It's all you need to get a good training session in but for professionals or serious competitors you may want to frequent the other school if you need more. Class structure Begins with warm ups, Techniques/drill and then roll/sparring. Safety I wanted to note this since they don't do any safety check or reminder which is something that would only take 30 seconds to a minute. First, I noticed some people don't tap when they're obviously caught by a submission. Second, some white belts seem to want to break joints. Both of these could be avoided or minimized with a short reminder to the class that you should be learning not trying to break your training partners. Instructor level I saw only black belt level instructors so experience wise unless you're already a grappling virtuoso you will have no shortage of people to learn from. Clean environment? I suspect there isn't a regular cleaning schedule. The mat had a fair bit of grim at the beginning of class and the higher then arms reach section of the glass view at the front of the building hints at cleaning being low on the priority list and sloppy. There is a very noticeable amount of dust and web build up so this was easy to spot the moment you look up. So I'd wash up well after practices from this place. This could easily be fixed with a daily and thorough cleaning schedule. Smell Expect sweaty smells regardless once the classes get going one after another since this is a sweaty activity and there is no ventilation. So reviewing areas for improvement Safety, cleanliness and placing students in a vulnerable position with the contract. Hope this helps anyone and send questions if I missed anything.

This place does not have its act together at all and in fact just closed its doors on Windsor Hwy.

The best martial arts school I've been to‎‎ by far; the best place I've trained in. The most classes for the money, the best instructors for every level. Everyone teaching is an expert in that style with many years of experience. What a difference! The reviews for NYMAG listings keep getting moved. NYMAG has a pretty new location in New Windsor on Rt 32--and it's AWESOME! If you travel south on the on 32 just outside of Newburgh. The new site's located in the Windsor Commons across from Friendly Motors.They teach classes in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai and Boxing for both the individual sports and MMA. Their instructors are experts and in their areas. Both sites are kick-butt, friendly environments where seasoned athletes get a real workouts and beginners are actually encouraged. Wait until you see what's coming next!
