KICKBOXING Level 1/Level 2

Western boxing Muay Thai kick boxing

This class teaches the fundamentals for our striking range delivery system. Various techniques from a western boxing structure combined with Muay Thai kick boxing are drilled to coach its participants to effectively use their hands, elbows, legs and knees from within and outside the clinch range for a complete and well rounded self-defense and combative sport approach.

BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is the most efficient and effective method for ground fighting of all the martial arts. The most important element of BJJ that separates it from it's Japanese counterpart is it's effective use of positional dominance over the opponent. A BJJ stylist will use various positions to control their opponent while applying locks, chokes or strikes. In traditional sport Brazilian Jiu Jitsu a kimono (gi) is worn. The kimono serves more as a tool than a uniform. The kimono is constructed of very thick material which is resistant to tearing and allows the BJJ player to utilize it as a means to control the opponent. It also allows for use of various "cloth chokes". These chokes using the collar, lapel and sleeves of the kimono, translate very well

SUBMISSION GRAPPLING

This art utilizes techniques from BJJ as well as western forms of wrestling and other ground fighting arts. In this sport a traditional uniform is not worn. Typically, a player will wear tight fitting, sport specific clothing that will minimize one's ability to use the clothing as a "tool" to control or submit an opponent. Submission grappling is growing into a very popular competitive sport here in the U.S. As with BJJ, the techniques from this sport with minor modifications will translate very well in self defense situations.

STRIKE CLINCH SUBMIT

The MMA class integrates all three phases of combat; Striking, Clinch and Ground. It is what we have discovered to be the most simple, direct, and efficient means to train and apply to both self-defense and the mixed combative sports. MMA uses Western Boxing, Muay Thai Kick Boxing, Greco Roman Wrestling and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu as its primary base. We have found them to be the best vehicles for training and developing the necessary attributes to perform effectively under the pressures of an aggressive assault or non-compliant resistance.
