WEEK 1 —DAY 1
8 WEEK BEGINNER MMA PROGRAMME
A great first session with the new group getting their MMA journey underway.
Tonight we covered:
MMA stance, movement & basic strikes
Outside & inside single-leg takedowns
Side control fundamentals
Head & arm triangle
Building the foundations one session at a time and putting everything together all the time.
We've had a couple of last-minute pull-outs, so a few spaces have become available.
If you've been thinking about starting MMA, you can still jump in and join the programme.

People will always have an opinion!
Train too much — you have no life.
Take a rest day — you're not serious.
Win — you got lucky.
Lose — you're not good enough.
Share your progress you're showing off.
Stay quiet you lack confidence.
You’ll never satisfy everyone, so stop trying.
Train for you. Improve for you. Do it because it matters to you.
Let them talk. Keep moving. 👊
Good footwork takes you places.
These FEET were made for walking…and fighting. 👊
Another sweaty Monday night int/adv drilling sparring class!

FROM COMPLETE BEGINNER → FIGHT CAMP
Meet Ben or as he’s better known around the gym Poster Boy Ben 😂
Ben walked through our doors back in January and joined one of our 8 Week Beginner MMA Programmes.
No MMA experience.
No plans to fight.
He simply wanted to lose some weight, get fitter and learn a new skill.
Fast forward a few months…
That’s Ben on the Wrath Combat Champions fight poster, preparing to make his Novice MMA debut on Saturday 19th September.
He’s gone from a complete beginner learning the basics to an athlete in a training camp preparing to step into the cage for the first time.
And that's exactly what these programmes can lead to.
You don't have to want to become a fighter.
You don't even need to be fit before you start.
You just need to start.
Where you decide to take it from there is up to you.
COULD YOU BE THE NEXT BEN?
