These events have exploded onto our television screens in recent years but MMA was not invented for these events, it was a product of them.
Originally the UFC was a tournament that took the best fighters from each martial art and pitted them against each other hoping to find the best fighter and identify the most powerful martial art. Boxers took on Wrestlers, Kickboxers fought SUMO wrestlers, BJJ players fought Karate experts, any style was allowed and nothing was restricted. Every style wanted to prove that theirs was the best but overtime it has become very clear that in order to be the best you have to train in ALL of these styles. You need to be able to defend yourself in ANY situation whether the fight be standing or on the ground.
And so it was that MMA as we know it today was born.
MMA allows the use of striking and grappling techniques, both standing and on the ground and takes aspects from Boxing, Kickboxing, Karate, Judo, Brazillian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ), Wrestling and various other martial arts.
MMA is not just for competition though – it is also one of the best forms of exercise and self defense that you can do. The training sessions are explosive, challenging, rewarding but most of all fun.
At SJ-MMA we take training very seriously and our students can not only train in the sport but they can compete too should they wish. Competing is not compulsory and many of our students train solely for the fitness and health benefits that MMA training offers. Students at SJ-MMA can expect to greatly increase their fitness, flexibility, coordination, speed and strength.
So whether you are wanting to become the next Georges St Pierre and compete in the Octagon or you are just looking to learn an exciting form of self defence and make some great friends along the way...SJ-MMA is the place for you!
