Consistent growth is a tell-tale sign of a successful martial arts school. There are many ways to grow a school, and head Coach Brian McLaughlin cuts no corners to ensure that he runs the number one mixed martial arts academy in the Hudson Valley. As a lifelong Hudson Valley resident, Brian prides himself on providing top notch martial arts instruction to his community. From humble beginnings in the attic of a physical therapy studio, Brian has committed his time and effort towards continually evolving the school that he cares for so deeply.

From adding more classes to the schedule, to dedicating time to students preparing for competition, the staff at Precision Boxing and MMA is unparalled in their dedication to bettering their student body. Being sure to stay close to Brian’s hometown of Poughkeepsie; Precision has continually relocated over the years to improve their facility and allow for more training space.

McLaughlin, a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu phenom, started off with a small mat space in the attic of a physical therapy studio. Under the name Hudson Valley Jiu-Jitsu, his small student body began to grow through word of mouth. Brian brought in some of his favorite coaches and training partners and eventually put together an expert staff, providing classes in Boxing, Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and MMA. With years of experience collecting wins in professional grappling and mixed martial arts, McLaughlin has accrued the knowledge and skill necessary to help students from any walk of life reach their goals.

Most recently, Precision moved to their largest facility yet. Having a boxing ring and the largest mat space in the Hudson Valley was great, but Coach Brian continued to believe that the sky is the limit. Now in renovation, Precision is knocking down some walls to further expand our mat space, create a separate boxing area and create a weight room for any strength and conditioning needs. Nobody can predict the future, but it’s a safe bet that owner and head coach Brian McLaughlin will stop at nothing to provide the best martial arts experience for his students.
