Rochester Top Team  Google five star review - The Best Jiu-Jitsu and Striking Gym In Rochester!
The Best Jiu-Jitsu and Striking Gym In Rochester!
I am a competitive martial artist and I’ve been training my whole life across different countries. I’ve encountered Rochester Top Team many times in tournaments, and even though I was not a member, they took to my corner and coached me through my matches when I didn’t have anyone with me. Aside from their unreal skill level, these are good people that simply do the right thing.

These great experiences with the team led me to visit Rochester just to train with them, and the moment I walked in, I was shocked at how well equipped the facility was. The owner Danny did such a great job setting this gym up when they opened.

Walking into the gym even as a BJJ blue belt, I encountered so many different looks in such a wide variety of styles and body types and I learned so much in just a couple of days with them. What stood out the most is that no matter the intensity, at no point was I worried about getting hurt. Everyone here is so safe to work with.

The atmosphere is incredibly positive and everyone is just a great vibe. Three hour sessions just flew by and I was having so much fun I lost track of time.

If I lived in Rochester, this would be my main gym. That would be regardless of whether I continue to compete as I am doing, or whether I am doing this for a hobby. This place is beyond excellent and I recommended not only to competitors, but even adults wanting to get in shape or learn fight skills.

Danny is a highly experienced competitor who has proven himself on mats all over the world. He consistently shows up at major tournaments and excels every time. If you’re training at Rochester Top Team, you’re learning from a truly legit instructor with real competitive pedigree. Highly recommend! 💪🥋

The energy in the gym is always super positive — you can really feel it as soon as you walk in. The coach (Danny) sets the tone perfectly. He does an amazing job making everyone feel included, and he’s very approachable, personable, and transparent.

Danny’s Muay Thai classes cover everything — technique, conditioning, and even the clinch. He’s a well-rounded practitioner and coach, and honestly, it’s impressive how humble he is given all of his professional accomplishments across Muay Thai and BJJ. The workouts will definitely get you into shape too.

He’s also fantastic with kids — he knows how to make the classes fun, engaging, and age-appropriate while still teaching discipline and skill. I really look forward to getting my children involved in the gym when they’re ready because I know they’ll be in great hands.

Whether you’re looking to get fit, learn self-defense, train recreationally, or compete, there’s truly a place for everyone here. I highly recommend this gym and couldn’t be happier training here.

While visiting family in Rochester, I wanted to do some training, so all my time wouldn't be spent eating and drinking.

I didn't bring any gloves or shin guards (too bulky for the suitcase this trip). So, I used this trip as an opportunity to finally start doing some grappling (i.e., BJJ).

The No-Gi classes with Coach Lucas were amazing and really built a foundational understanding for me. I even did a private training lesson to over various self-defense scenarios, since I'm not currently training for any fights.

I also attended a kickboxing class, which happened to be on sparring day! This was a treat for me, since I had been sparring regularly for the past few months in ATX. The sparring is light and technical, which is all I'm interested in (again, since I'm not currently training for any fights).

Since I wanted to focus on grappling this trip, I decided to also do some Thai Clinch Training with Coach Danny. Not only has Coach Danny given me a strong foundation for Thai clinch fighting, I have now decided that I want to specifically focus on clinch fighting when I get back to Austin!

I did 4 private lessons with Coach Danny. The first session was focused on clinching, the second on escaping, the third in knee attacks from the clinch and the fourth/final session was putting it all together by sparring with the Coach!

Naturally, it takes months to years to become proficient at any discipline. This was the foundation I need for grappling and clinch fighting!

Since, I currently reside in TX and only come to Rochester a few times a year, I asked for a 10 class membership. So, whenever I'm in Rochester, I have a gym to train at!

Thank you Rochester Top Team! 🙏

PS: After clinch sparring with the Coach, I decided to treat myself to a Garbage Plate! 🙌

Beautiful facility!

The owner, Danny, is one of the most welcoming and nicest guys I’ve met. He gave me a walk-through of the entire gym on day 1 and spent a lot of time talking to me before and after class to answer all my questions.

He is also a super high-level and well-rounded fighter, as is the rest of his team.

Coach Danny made it really fun and informative for both of my boys first time trying kickboxing. Danny was very positive, enthusiastic, supportive, knowledgeable, and patient with the kids.

I had a private with the owner, Danny. He is an accomplished grappler and I had a very informative session. I highly recommend this gym in the area, it is full of killers.
