MIXED MARTIAL ARTS (MMA)

After the explosion of “No Rules” fighting in the early 1990’s with the debut of UFC and Royce Gracie’s victories in the Octagon, the public perception of what works “for real” in a fight was completely altered over night. This spawned a new age of development in martial arts as a whole by breaking traditions and cross training multiple styles of combat. This also caused an outburst of smaller events, now called the politically safe name of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) world wide. People all over the United States were quickly becoming known as some of the most skilled fighters in the world.

Today, MMA is the fastest growing sport in the world. With over a decade of professional MMA experience, it’s no surprise students are seeking Curran Martial Arts to be their home as they prepare themselves to become professional MMA fighters.
