Moving from California to Poughkeepsie, NY this summer.
Can anyone recommend a good place to train at.
Interested in BJJ, MMA, Kung Fu even, I just want a place to practice.
Gene Simco has BJJ school there

Haven't been there in a while but there used to be some heavy bags downstairs at the Y downtown. Not a school but a start.

damn man, I'm sorry
I was out in Poughkeepsie for almost a year for work.
Trained at Brian McLaughlin's school.
He is a purple under Rob Kahn.
He has some really good people there, so you'll find plenty of good people to roll with.
hudson valley jiu jitsu is about 10 minutes away in fishkill. go to bjjfighter.com and check it out.Brian is an awesome instructor.
oh, and last I heard Brian was going to move his school to a new location and make it more MMA oriented.
