Gi and No Gi classes are offered during the week, as well as designated rolling time.

Wrestling

Take the fight to the ground! We offer No Gi Jiu Jitsu, Cage Wrestling, and Wrestling for MMA. Our wrestling program will help you improve your skill set from High School wrestling to ADCC competitions alike.

STRENGTH & CONDITIONING

We all want to know which came first, the chicken or the egg? With Alyssa, she was a Martial Artist who fell in love with fitness and that motivated her to pursue her degree in Kinesiology Exercise Science. Train from someone who walks the walk and knows what fighters and BJJ competitors need to take their training to the next level.

STRIKING

Striking for MMA is a blend of Kickboxing and Muay Thai techniques. We use practical drilling and pad work to develop stand-up fighting skills to utilize in the cage. This class is for high level strikers and beginners alike. This class will increase your stamina & endurance, and teach you the skills that have been passed down from coaches like Kru Bob Perez and Michael Chase Corley.

If you’re a beginner and just starting out then 2-4 times per week will be enough to see results and allow you to adjust.

You’ll be sore some days, so allow yourself recovery days between training sessions at first – over the course of the following months work up towards 5 days per week if you want to maximize!

You choose the program that best fits what you are looking for. Striking, Jiu Jitsu, or BOTH! As you progress through the classes you will be promoted to a new rank in Jiu Jitsu or if you feel like you want to challenge yourself, you can compete in exhibition matches, tournaments, or even become an amateur/pro MMA fighter.

Each class is led by qualified coaches. We always start together with a warm-up designed to activate the muscles being used in the class.
The coach will then teach a specific technique. During the class, the coach will be guiding and providing instruction as you drill and put the technique into live training.
At the end of class, we allow time for intermediate and advanced students to roll or spar. You can also use this time to drill any movements or cool down from class.
