WNY Mixed Martial Arts & Fitness

Self-defense skills are essential for everyone. Attackers typically go after people who look like easy targets. But when you have the skills to protect yourself and the people you care about, you won't look like an easy target. Instead, you'll carry yourself with awareness and confidence. At WNY Mixed Martial Arts & Fitness, you learn self-defense that takes you well beyond what's typically covered in self-defense seminars.

In martial arts and combat sports, striking refers to hand-to-hand combat between opponents in a standing position. In contrast, you have grappling arts that largely dictate ground fighting, though in MMA striking can be part of a fighter's ground game. Strikes can come from fists, knees, elbows, and kicks in order to hurt your opponent or set up the opportunity to enter into grappling.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, No-Gi Submission Wrestling, and Wrestling are the grappling arts that we teach and practice at WNY MMA & Fitness. But, for those who are new, what is grappling? In grappling, for self-defense and for sport, we work without weapons or striking to gain an advantage over our opponents.
