Cruz Mixed Martial Arts Academy NYC

Cruz Mixed Martial Arts Academy NYC sits on broad 27th Street between Sixth and Seventh Avenues, offering New Yorkers a focused entry point into mixed martial arts. Flyers for local borough tournaments flutter on a hallway bulletin board; a sign points to the shower stalls behind a frosted door marked Restroom. A compact entry vestibule keeps the space compact, with enough room for a locker shelf and a bench tucked against the wall—practical footwear stays on the floor when shoes swap for mat shoes on the training floor.

Midtown’s grid feels less hurried outside the academy than a block east on Broadway, where food carts queue for office workers. For Monday or Wednesday drop-ins, call (201) 409-6394 to confirm open mat hours before heading over. Directions are a single tap away on your phone, straight through this link to the map.
