Why MMA
Mixed Martial Arts is the most complete combat system, blending striking, wrestling, and Jiu Jitsu into one discipline. Our program teaches you how to enter safely, change levels, control positions, and finish with efficiency. Whether you're training for fitness, self-defense, or competition, the approach stays the same: smart, technical, and repeatable.
What You’ll Learn
- Striking to grappling transitions: jabs to shots, kicks to clinch, counter-wrestling
- Takedowns and cage work: level changes, entries, finishes, wall rounds
- Top control and pressure: passing, ride positions, ground-and-pound mechanics
- Bottom options: frames, stand-ups, reversals, and submissions
- Fight IQ: pacing, round strategy, and decision-making under pressure
How Classes Run
Each session follows a consistent structure with a warm-up, technical drills, situational rounds, and optional controlled sparring. Drills are progression-based so beginners build safely while advanced students stay challenged.
Beginners & Hobbyists
No experience needed. You’ll start with stance, guard, safe entries, and basic takedowns, then move into control and finishing sequences. Coaching is hands-on, intensity is scaled to your level, and partners are selected to make every session productive and safe.
Competitors
For athletes preparing to compete, we focus on conditioning, game planning, wall work, and live problem-solving. Expect scenario rounds, time-based pacing, and detailed feedback to sharpen execution.
Safety Standards
We train hard while keeping respect and safety first. Bring a mouthguard, 7–10 oz MMA gloves for contact rounds, and shin guards for striking. Communication is constant, and sparring is always optional, supervised, and scaled to your experience level.
What to Bring
Mouthguard, MMA gloves, shin guards, and water. Rash guard and shorts without zippers are recommended. If you’re new, we’ll help you get outfitted properly. A courtesy shower is available; please bring your own towel and soap.
