MMA
Everything comes together in Mixed Martial Arts.
Learn the most comprehensive combination of all the most effective martial arts. Whether you're after fitness, self defence, or glory in the cage, this is for you.
What is MMA?
MMA, or Mixed Martial Arts, is not a standalone discipline of martial arts, but rather a combination of the most effective tools from other martial arts disciplines.
​
MMA involves striking, grappling, wrestling and jujitsu, making it extremely comprehensive and diverse. Learning such a wide skill set can take years and requires much dedication. However, because of this diversity, MMA is not alone extremely interesting and fun, it is easily the most practical training option for anyone looking to develop top tier self-defence skills.
MMA isn't just for fighters
It's a common misconception that MMA is only for fighters, or that you need to fight if you want to learn MMA.
​
Whilst some gyms may push competition on their members, at Ascend we wholeheartedly believe that MMA is for everyone! MMA is perfect as a way to get fit or learn extremely practical self defence, and the avenue for those who want to jump in the cage is always open as well.
Why Choose Ascend?
Many gyms offering MMA will have a strong preference towards the main discipline that their gym offers whilst neglecting other aspects of MMA; BJJ gyms will favour ground work and striking gyms will favour stand up MMA.
​
At Ascend, your instructors are not just experts in all facets of MMA. They are tried and tested combat athletes that have developed their understanding of martial arts first hand.
​
You can be sure that your MMA training at Ascend will be well rounded and leave you with no gaps in your abilities.
