MCMA - Modern Combat Martial Arts

MCMA - Modern Combat Martial Arts in Harrow is built around a modern, professional approach to martial arts, with a strong focus on practical self-defence and personal development. The academy was founded by instructors with over two decades of experience across multiple disciplines, including Krav Maga, Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and MMA. The Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu programme is led by Jeff Cechinel, a black belt who developed his skills through Alliance and Icon BJJ in both Brazil and the UK, and who brings a competitor’s mindset to his teaching while prioritising the sharing of knowledge and helping students reach their potential. The schedule at MCMA is notably broad, running seven days a week and catering to all ages and abilities. Adults can work through fundamentals to advanced levels in BJJ, MMA, Muay Thai, boxing, wrestling, and Krav Maga, with additional classes for women only—some led by female instructors. Juniors, teens, and children have dedicated sessions in BJJ, kickboxing, MMA, and self-defence, with a structured grading system that rewards personal merit and progression rather than commercial targets. The academy also fields a juniors’ fight team and offers competition-focused coaching for those aiming to test themselves at higher levels. MCMA is based at a full-time facility in Harrow, with further headquarters in Northwood and Watford and satellite classes in South Oxhey and Hemel Hempstead. The academy maintains high standards for instructor qualifications, safety, and safeguarding, and supports its members’ growth both inside and outside the gym. Drop-ins are welcome across a variety of classes, and private training is available for those seeking tailored development. The ethos combines traditional martial arts values with a progressive, community-focused approach, aiming to equip students not only for competition but for the demands of modern life in Harrow and the wider Greater London area.
