These elite athletes have dedicated their lives to MMA and training.
UFC Gym has identified MMA's basic components and has made them easy for the general public to use as an effective and efficient way to improve and maintain a healthy physical condition. The philosophy takes the most effective styles of MMA and concentrates on each discipline. The specific martial arts styles below are the primary program focus at UFC Gym.
o Striking is classified as stand-up fighting, kickboxing, punches, kicks, knees or elbows. Muay Thai is considered the most effective striking stand-up martial art and implements western boxing punches and footwork.
o Grappling is classified as techniques, maneuvers, and counters applied to an opponent in order to gain a physical advantage. These benefits include improving relative position, escaping, and submitting opponents. Brazilian jiu-jitsu is known to be the most effective ground-fighting technique in MMA.
Men, women and children of all fitness and experience levels are trained to achieve their best results under one roof. Not too many years ago, an MMA athlete had to travel to multiple gyms in order to train for strength, conditioning, striking and grappling. UFC Gym Ontario has provided all the essentials in one location to bring out the ultimate athlete inside each of its members.
