Martial Arts that provide the Fundamentals for our Fight Club
At St. Louis Training Circle we train a Mixed Martial Arts curriculum composed of high percentage techniques from some of the greatest fighting sports existing today. We feel it is important for martial artists to primarily train high percentage fight techniques - the fighting techniques that work for most people most of the time. Our class instruction, as a result, teaches fighters to go from 0 to 60 mph in a much shorter time - and have much more fun as well.
For our Stand Up Striking techniques we use mostly Western Boxing and Thai Boxing.
Our Clinch Striking game at our gym involves both standard and "dirty" Western Boxing techniques and Thai Boxing elbows and knees.
Our Clinch Takedown game is primarily made up of Western Wrestling - Folk (High School), Freestyle and (especially!) Greco Roman Collegiate Wrestling. It is supplemented with some high percentage gi and no-gi Judo.
Our Ground fighting is mostly Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, with the occasional dose from other Submission Grappling styles, as well as some escapes and controls from Olympic / College Wrestling Styles.
Our Weapons curriculum is not often trained, but always fun. We primarily train MMA - but the sticks are so much fun we have to break them out and play with them on occasion.
If you want to be able to defend yourself against a larger opponent you have to train in an athletic system that works against an aggressive, stronger attacker. This is the only kind of Rape Prevention or Self Defense that will ever work under a serious threat. Our gym's system is an exceptional method of real world self defense that will work when under high pressure from a real world attack.
