Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) / Jiu-Jitsu – All Levels

With the popularity of Ultimate Fighting Championship and Pride Fighting Championships, Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) is quickly becoming a competitive sport people want to learn. This class is anyone who is interested in Mixed Martial Arts. We will provide instruction on ground fighting which includes submissions, positions, ground striking, takedowns, and defense techniques against takedowns. The 1.5 hour class begins with warm-up which includes calisthenics and Jiu-Jitsu drills. After warm-up you will pair up with a partner and practice the technique of the day. The last portion of the class is spent on sparring, otherwise known as ‘rolling,’ which is submitting your opponent and practicing superior positions (e.g. mounting, passing someone’s guard, takedowns). No gi required.
