Teens Mixed Martial Arts

Class Overview

The Teens MMA classes provide a mid-way point where 11-16yr olds can start to work on more advanced techniques while still training with partners their own size. The MMA classes cover a range of Striking (Punching, Kicking) and Grappling & Wrestling techniques.

Our Teens programme provides a controlled environment in which we encourage our teens to learn applications of physics and body mechanics in addition to building discipline & respect for others. We maintain a positive environment to learn, but also a physical outlet for them release stress and improve fitness.  

We also provide a grading syllabus and access to competitions to provide goals and training focus for the team throughout the year. We've had a strong team taking a range of medals at the NZ Grappler & Full Force competitions and we are always looking to develop a deeper programme for our competitive youth. As of 2018 several of our former Colts MMA team members have gone on to have a successfull amateur career in competitive MMA.

The program is designed to facilitate the transition of younger teenagers from the youth classes into the adults classes.

For teenagers looking to get more serious about MMA competition, check out our Youth Elite Academy programme.
