Mixed Martial Arts is a combination of stand up and ground and pound. Want to learn how to fight, defend yourself or just get fit? Then MMA is right for you. Learn from an experienced coach and experienced fighter that will guide you on the mats.
The Mixed Martial Arts classes consist of stand up including pad work, footwork, takedowns and various submissions and defence.
Before getting into the technical aspect of the class it is important to warm up to help prevent injuries. This may vary from class to class but here's what to expect.
Once the warm up is finished the technical element of the class begins with drills and exercises such as;
Next is the pad work and drilling component of the class where we get hands on with pads, and practical application drills to achieve flawless technique, build our striking-specific cardio and endurance, and learn how to develop our striking style and repertoire.
Once the hard work is done, we begin the cool-down phase of the class which will often see us relaxing with a short walk around the mats, a chat with our training mates and then finish with a full-body static stretch to further aid our recovery and flexibility.
As with any gym, there are a few things we ask you to keep in mind before starting your first class;
Loose/flexible shorts (necessary when kicking). Striking shorts are preferred however.
Our classes foster a welcoming and positive culture. While we work hard and aim to excel, please keep in mind that we have a responsibility to ensure the safety and well-being of our training partners, classmates, and coaches.
No shoes on the mats and ensure you keep a high level of personal hygiene before, during and after class
Our classes do require some equipment in order for you to fully participate.
These Include;
Recommended:
Boxing gloves (no bag mitts) 10oz for pad work and 16oz for sparring), mouth guard, groin guard/chest guard, shin pads, and hand wraps. If you need assistance with acquiring these, please don’t hesitate to speak to one of our coaches.
