BJJ in Woodside

Woodside is a densely populated neighborhood in northwestern Queens, served by the 7 train (one of the busiest subway lines in the system) and the LIRR Port Washington Branch, sitting between Astoria to the north and Sunnyside to the west. Three academies cover the local training market. **Glory Mixed Martial Arts** carries Alliance affiliation — a notable lineage flag in a borough dominated by Renzo Gracie and independent operators. Alliance (Romero "Jacare" Cavalcanti lineage) is less common in the outer boroughs than in Manhattan, making Glory a distinct option for competitors who want that affiliation. Virtues Martial Arts and Strikezone & Fitness round out the local roster, both operating as independents with kickboxing and grappling crossover programming. The 7-train connection makes Flushing (east) and Manhattan (west) accessible for training variety. Adult unlimited runs $160–$230/mo.
