MMA / MIXED MARTIAL ARTS MMA (Mixed Martial Arts),
also known as "ultimate fighting", is the fastest-growing professional
sport in the world. MMA encompasses the most effective combat tactics from
multiple disciplines and styles of martial art. MMA is a complete fighting
system. Students develop a variety of skills for striking, grappling,
groundwork, submission holds, joint locks, and takedowns, as well as
conditioning for speed, strength, endurance, and flexibility.
Submission Wrestling (also called Submission Fighting, and technically referred
to as Submission Grappling) is a sports modality and a general term that is used
to describe the aspect of martial arts and combat sports that focus on clinch
and ground fighting with the aim of obtaining a submission using submission
holds. Submission wrestling as a separate sport integrates many grappling arts
into a single system, and can include techniques from a wide range of arts. What You Will Learn
Conditioning-Positioning-Striking-Submission
These four words make up the Training Continuum.
Conditioning
Notice that conditioning is first in the continuum and thusly forms the
foundation on which all else is built. Fights are won in the gym not in the
ring. You may have all the technique in the world but if you don't have the gas
in the tank it is all for naught.
Positioning
Is second in the continuum but seemingly last in most combat arts. Before the
first punch is thrown, before the first shot is set-up, before the first
submission is forced there comes the strategic positioning of your opponent's
body and your own. Having knowledge of the inherent engineering weaknesses and
strengths of any and all positions whether they are horizontal or vertical,
static or fluid is integral to truly accessing the power of the final two
components of our MMA system.
Striking
Is the third in the continuum. We utilize a JKD/Pugilist base for our
striking arts.
And it takes on a whole new ferocity when you have an appreciation of the
training modality (functional drills) and positioning concepts. You can
literally triple the power of your existing strikes just by adhering to the
positioning concepts
Submission
Is the last but not least in the continuum? Submission wrestling is an exciting
combination of both Eastern & Western grappling arts. It blends together the
arts of Scientific Wrestling, Greco-Roman, Freestyle, all Mediterranean basin
wrestling styles, Russian folk wrestling, Sambo, Pankration, and of course
English All-In Wrestling and Catch-as-Catch-Can. You will train in call and
response chains that present moves/counters/re-counters pursued to their
feasible conclusion. We train this aspect of the game in this manner to better
ingrain responses as logical flow rather than just a random series of "tap"
choices.
