Excellent training near SUNY Schools?

Binghamton is run by TKD and Hidy Ochiai McKrotty. The closest thing to MMA up there would be the University BJJ Club. However, my information is 5 years out of date and things change.

*Note: I think it is sad that you are picking your college based on it proximity to a good MMA program.

A Quick google search revealed CNY MMA opened a Binghamton location on Front Street. That is pretty close to the college, not walking distance, but there are buses. No idea how good the mma school is though

Ummm...you're asking about the whole state of NY...including NYC.

Do you want to narrow it down a bit, or should we just recommend any good school in North America?

1) read the thread.
2) how the **** is everywhere in NY state near a SUNY school? Obviously if I am asking I mean commuting distance away.

Dude...maybe you don't know what SUNY means? State University of New York. There are like over 50 schools in the SUNY system and they are located throughout the state.

Check out Google. A great search engine.

CNY MMA is solid. Not ZOMG amazing, but solid.

Brockport has an amazing Judo club. Be a man do Judo.

Albany has several MMA/BJJ gyms.

Fredonia has Team DNA which is a club of guys who trained in Ohio and now study at Fredonia. I'm not sure if they are still there but I'm sure the MMa program is.
