Sting Gym MMA (Mixed Martial Arts)
As one of the fastest growing sports in the world, just about everyone has heard of MMA in one form or another. Whether it’s the UFC, CFC and Fightforce, people are coming to appreciate the level of athleticism, courage and training it takes to step into the ring or cage.

In the early 1990’s the UFC and the Gracie family burst onto the scene with “No Rules” fighting and immediately put into the question the effectiveness of many traditional martial art styles. Although the original competitions were highly criticized as being barbaric and scrutinized by politicians, they did teach one very important lesson: the best martial art style was not having ONE, but instead a blend of several arts including striking, wrestling, and submissions.

Classes often mix striking and submission drills with pad work, grappling, light sparring, and practicing takedowns and takedown defenses. Our mixed martial arts class will challenge you physically each day with our rigorous training routine, but will also inspire your desire to learn as you master new skills each training session.
