Synthesis Brazilian BJJ

Synthesis Brazilian BJJ was founded and is led by Casey Lamb, a first-degree black belt under Robson Moura, who brings over four decades of experience on the mats. Casey’s journey started as an 11-year-old wrestler, leading to a Division 1 career at Cornell University and a decorated competitive record, including a Master’s World title at brown belt and a black belt World silver medal. His background also spans professional MMA fighting and coaching at every level—from youth grapplers to BJJ world medalists and UFC fighters. The school was built to serve Rochester with a broad, high-level approach to grappling and martial arts, drawing on Casey’s deep roots in both Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and wrestling. Training at Synthesis covers both gi and no-gi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, with a clearly defined fundamentals track for beginners and structured classes for more advanced students. Kids have their own dedicated gi and no-gi sessions, giving young grapplers space to develop skills alongside their peers. The academy’s schedule features nearly 50 classes a week, including wrestling, striking, and MMA, making it a practical home base for students interested in takedowns, live rounds, or transitioning into mixed martial arts. Open mat sessions are available throughout the week, allowing members and visitors extra time for sparring and positional work. The 11,000-square-foot facility sits just off the 390 and Jefferson Road intersection, welcoming drop-ins and cross-trainers from Rochester and surrounding towns. Synthesis offers a family discount for members and keeps its doors open to travelers or local grapplers looking for a diverse training environment. The academy’s blend of wrestling, BJJ, and MMA under one roof reflects Casey Lamb’s vision: giving students the tools to develop as complete martial artists, whatever their starting point.
