    Not strictly an mma club but there is a very good bjj club in the city run by liam beechinor. he fought in the mma league before so i'm sure he could accommodate u.

    15 and above for training.
    Just noticed I had the wrong date . The right date is 10th October Saturday 14:30 and 11th October Sunday 10:00am. You can pop into the gym for a chat, for more info if you like... anytime during the schedule on our websitewww.bjjcork.com

    Just ask for Liam

    K2C in Blackpool have a few MMA classes a week as well as Muay Thai, BJJ and boxing. As far as I know the MMA class has about 10-14 every week.

    I definitely recommend you check out the boxing clinic in cork before you make your final decision. Its well equipped and has great coaches in mma, boxing, bjj, wrestling and muay thai. They also run beginners mma if like myself you want to ease yourself into the sport and of course head mma coach Jake Hecht is in the UFC :D Cant say enough good things about this club to be honest, great people, great training and very affordable

    well checked them all out and have joined the mma clinic, serious set up and when i asked around about records etc it was quite clear that the mma clinic was the main gym that prodouced fighters in cork, and the week i joined they won 2 titles at man of war. easy decision in fairness.
