Infuse heart, soul, spirit and passion because talent is not enough. — Dominick Cruz
MMA is the logical conclusion of all combat sports. As much as can feasibly be allowed is allowed. If you’ve got a bit of experience striking and grappling, and you want to push yourself to the next level that few can reach, this may be the test for you.
Many people have thought about doing MMA, but far fewer have showed up to train. Even fewer have managed to stick at the training, whereby your striking, BJJ, and wrestling must all be simultaneously improved as your physical condition is pushed to its peak. If you ever step into a cage and hear the door slam shut behind you, you can be safe in the knowledge that you are in truly rarefied company, whatever the result of the next few minutes.
For anyone interested in MMA training, and perhaps one day competing, we’d recommend the first thing you do is start attending both our kickboxing and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu classes to build up some fundamental experience in both of these arts. Our beginner MMA class will also introduce you to some more specific MMA skills such as wallwork and mixing takedowns with strikes, without requiring too much prior knowledge. If you’re starting out, develop a love of each martial art before merging them on your canvas into your own unique MMA style.
It’s a long road just to competition, let alone success, but if you put in the time, then you can look forward to incomparable highs that few will ever reach.
We will also be planning events with our sister gym Scramble Academy Leeds!
