Mixed Martial Arts (MMA)

Mixed Martial Arts is an all-in-one inclusive combat system that incorporates the most effective fighting disciplines in the world. MMA utilizes Jiu-Jitsu, Judo, Thai boxing (Muay Thai), Wrestling and Western Boxing to produce a combat system that will end any attack or self-defense situation quickly and effectively. Our instructors will teach you how to execute the latest cutting edge techniques and counter techniques. You will learn how to maintain your composure under fire, escape from the various ground and pound positions, fighting from the clinch, take downs and free range striking. There is light sparring in class to prepare students to execute proper technique when it counts. We do not have more advanced students trying to kill our beginning students, we train and learn as a team and you can count on our more advanced students to help you improve your game.

Class Description:
MMA is a 2 hour class, the first hour is instructional usually consisting of a related series of moves. The moves are broken down and explained, the "how and why" are covered in detail such as the leverage systems and possible counters. Students are paired up by weight and skill level to slowly practice or "drill" the techniques with the guidance of the Coach, to make sure every step is practiced and understood.

The second hour is completely optional and its ok to leave at any time. We play "king of the hill" where one guy is in the middle and whomever wins stays in the middle, this way our Coach can advise both students on their strategy and technique. The more experienced students take it easy on the new guys and let them work techniques, we work as a team. Striking is reserved for advanced students only!

Our MMA coaches philosophy:
Adrenaline is your enemy!!! Many coaches and students feel they have to get pumped and go "hardcore", NOT SO!!! Combat on the ground or standing is a chess match not a competition to see can lose their mind the most. The most valuable conditioning you can have is psychological conditioning, being able to think under fire. Adrenaline increases your heart rate and makes your muscles tense witch greatly increases the demand for oxygen thus killing your endurance. It also takes you from reading your opponent, setting up counters or submissions and thinking 2 or 3 steps ahead to "here and now". Without strategy and composure you are left hoping for a lucky shot. Strength and aggression have their place but if you rely on them when you practice you will never learn the proper technique that could make the difference between winning and losing in the ring or cage.

Testimonial
The techniques/confidence that Mr. Joseph Harris taught me in his MMA/Muay Thai classes are essential for any law enforcement professional that have to deal with physical confrontations with suspects or inmates. Personal story, a couple months ago, I was attacked by an inmate that was bigger than me and worse, I was attacked from behind. Due to the training that I received from Mr. Harris, at Prestige Training Center, in the Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) class; that specialize on techniques for ground fighting, I was able to cope more with the sudden shock because I had the experience of the sparring class that emphasizes on actual ground fighting maneuvers. I was able to rotate my body from the ground position and confidently get on the inmates back and put him in a neck restraint until back up arrived. I could have been seriously injured or even killed if not for the training that I received from Mr. Harris in the MMA class. I am more confident and better equipped to handle myself in any physical situation that might present itself at work or on the street.
