Arena Combat Sports / Kickboxing / BJJ / MMA

Arena Combat Sports / Kickboxing / BJJ / MMA in Miami was founded in 2011 to make high-level martial arts training accessible to the local community. The gym offers a range of disciplines including Muay Thai Kickboxing, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Boxing, Wrestling, and MMA. The coaching philosophy centers on developing discipline, humility, and self-defense skills across all ages, with programs designed to suit everyone from beginners to professional athletes. The academy’s leadership emphasizes practical training that builds confidence and technique through consistent effort rather than shortcuts. Classes at Arena Combat Sports follow a structured progression, especially in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu where fundamentals are clearly taught in gi classes before students move into no-gi sessions. Adult BJJ students can join fundamentals classes or advance to level-specific no-gi training. The gym also hosts open mat sessions for extra rolling time. For younger students, the Junior Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu program targets ages 6 to 13 and focuses on introducing core concepts alongside discipline. Similarly, the Junior Muay Thai Kickboxing classes adapt the traditional art of Eight Limbs for the younger age groups, preparing them for MMA and kickboxing in a safe environment. Even the youngest kids, ages 3 to 5, have a Junior MMA class designed as an introduction to martial arts movement and coordination. Beyond regular classes, Arena Combat Sports offers amenities such as wheelchair accessibility and parking, supporting a diverse range of students. The gym maintains a consistent schedule with morning through evening classes, including multiple levels of Muay Thai Kickboxing. Their programs also include self-defense, bully prevention, and bootcamps, reflecting a comprehensive approach to martial arts training that extends beyond competition into practical life skills.
