Coalition Combat Sports - MMA - Jiu Jitsu - Kickboxing

Coalition Combat Sports - MMA - Jiu Jitsu - Kickboxing is led by owner Keo Lyons in Stuarts Draft, Virginia, and brings together a team of instructors with backgrounds across Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, kickboxing, and mixed martial arts. Coalition was founded on the idea that martial arts should be a path to personal growth and connection as much as physical skill. The academy’s coaching staff includes names like Rick Palmer and Connor Tobin for Jiu-Jitsu, Ian Marshall and Rob Nesbit for kickboxing, and Dylan Thompson and Nate Plummer for MMA. This group guides students through a wide variety of classes and training formats. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at Coalition is centered around no-gi training, with both adult and youth programs available. The schedule includes open mat sessions for adults, where students can train at their own pace and work on techniques with others. MMA and kickboxing classes for adults are a regular part of the weekly routine, and self-defense courses are also offered. For younger students, Coalition runs youth Jiu-Jitsu led by instructors Andrew Prickett and Cedrick Miller, focusing on building skills and confidence in a supportive setting. The academy welcomes drop-ins and offers flexible membership options, making it easy for new students to get started. Coalition Combat Sports is wheelchair accessible and aims to create an environment where people of all backgrounds can train together, push themselves, and support each other in reaching their goals.
