    The recent past has seen a substantial growth of mixed martial arts also called MMA. More and more people are showing interest in mixed martial arts and the number of people learning MMA has already gone to record levels. The reason is you don’t have to learn only one type of self defence and being left in a state of total noobishness. When learning MMA, you are actually leaning many other martial arts simultaneously which is more beneficial to the one who is learning it.

    MMA was started keeping in mind the real world scenarios where no weapon to defend oneself was not available and now it’s considered just another self defence discipline like voxing, kick boxing karate etc. whether you want to learn mixed Martial Arts for physical fitness, self defence or competition, it’s going to help you a lot in your personal life. Learning martial arts was once considered an aggressive act but over the years people have started understanding its benefits.

    Parents all over the world enroll their children in martial arts Self Defence Courses thinking that it would help their children in many ways, but only a few children learn martial arts properly. The mistake parents do is they don’t do prior research before enrolling and think that all martial arts courses are the same and forget the fact that the trainers are the most important when choosing self defence classes. A who is bogged down to the same kind of repetitive training will certainly bore the kids and they will quickly lose interest in learning . A good trainer is always innovative, cool and tough to make the children actively take part in classes.

    Mixed martial art training allows one to learn and perform a wide variety techniques from different martial arts so that the learner learns hundreds of combat movements which will be very helpful both for self defence and competitions. Mixed martial arts encompasses most of the traditional and non traditional self defence techniques and the seasoned person has an edge in any combat. When learning MMA, you are actually improving your physical and mental fitness to a greater level as it challenges your body more than any regular exercises. The one who learns martial arts self defense develops better cardio vascular and muscular endurance and stamina.

    With all that been said, Who are you and whats your MMA experience?

    in other words are you a Krav Maga lad (some TKD lad cashing in on KM) trying to cash in on MMA, MMA is great but is slowly been destroyed by people who dont actually care for the sport and just see the dollar signs..

    Rush Boxing club and Rush Martial Arts head coach.

    unfortunately it looks like the bull**** mma courses are going to become quite common. it's become the new martial arts buzz word. I've seen a few classes being set up by people who don't appear to have any real background in mma. some of the clubs are just hard men knocking lumps out each other with no real coaching going on.

    Putting the first paragraph of the post into google gets you a bunch of links to pages on articlebase.com that seem to have been written by him.

    It does sound like Mr Comiskey. Started me on Krav Maga on a weekend course. I've progressed on to regular training and it's been fantastic for my physical fitness.

    I trained with Pat for about 5 years, I must get back at some stage. I am suprised that he is posting here though. If it is him.

    The title of the thread sounds as it if was written Borat. :D
    I don't think it was written by "Mr" Cumiskey. By the way, is that how people address him in class?

    I said it in the early "Irish Martial Arts Forum" in the early 00's and it's come to pass mma in general is now just another style "safe for kids" a promotional tool trading on past and present real professional fighters but now totally removed from those who compete, taught by those whose experience comes down to watching cage rage. MMA the new tai chi, a handfull of sincere fighters those with "zhen Chuan" true transmission, the rest wannabe hippies!
