Clinches

Ground Fighting

Our Senior Instructor has taken the best from several disciplines to give our students the best arsenal from which to draw from, a mode to defend them self from stand up to on the ground fighting. To create the best possible all around offensive and defensive student! 

Brazillian Jiu jitsu - Ground fighting,Brazilian jiu-jitsu is a martial art that instructs a smaller person how to defend themselves against a larger adversary by using leverage and proper technique. 


Ju jitsuJujitsu is a martial art of Japan’s Samurai Warrior. Because the warriors donned armor before entering the battlefield, kicking and punching had little effect. Therefore, chokes and joint locks were the only techniques that could attack unprotected targets like the neck, wrists and ankles. It is categorized mostly as a system of self-defense.


Karate - Karate, which means empty hand, is a means of defending oneself with hands and feet. A type of unarmed combat where all the anatomy is used to kick, punch and strike or block.


Kickboxing – Kickboxing is a modern martial sport that combines the hand techniques of Western Boxing with the kicks of the Asian Martial Arts.

Ninjitsu – Ninjitsu is the art of Japan’s Ninja Warrior, it includes linear and circular empty hands technique encompassing punching, kicking and grappling. It also includes stand-up clinches and arm-locks.

Wrestling – Wrestling is a combative sport that probably originated in ancient Greece and Rome. It is practiced in various forms in most cultures of the world (Sumo in Japan, Sambo in Russia, etc) It formed the basis for the Japanese Martial Art sport of shoot-fighting, and many of its techniques are similar to those of judo (a sport derived from Jujutsu.)

Aikido- Aikido is performed by blending with the motion of the attacker and redirecting the force of the attack rather than opposing it head-on. This requires very little physical strength, as the aikido practitioner uses the weight of the attacker and his momentum against him. The techniques are completed with various throws or joint locks.

Strengthening the inner qualities of -


Respect

Focus

Determination

Self-control

Integrity

Discipline

Consideration

*Elite Mixed Martial Arts Center not only wants its students to have the ability to defend oneself. But, to develop the inner qualities of a true martial artist. Developing the traits of integrity, consideration, respect, focus, self-control, determination and discipline, which is also an integral part of martial arts. This aspect is the reason the martial arts have survived and evolved for thousands of years. Bringing forth and living the honorable way is a very arduous path. Having the ability to face ones inner weaknesses and not give in to them is difficult. But if you listen and learn from a virtuous instructor you will become and live the life of a true warrior!

*Each month a new warrior word will be introduced to our students. There is no time limit to understand and live the essence of its meaning. But, each student must complete Elite M.M.A. Center requirements to earn their Black Star! Please understand this is an ongoing program and is not a contest to see who achieves their Dragon Patch first. A black star will be awarded when the Senior Instructor deems the youth and/or adult have met and lived the true understanding of each word in class, home and at school.

*A handout is given to each student for the first word and thereafter when they are awarded their star. The Senior Instructor will award the Black Star on test week.
