Claim this gymRed Schafer Mixed Martial Arts is led by Red Schafer, a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt under Professor Pedro Sauer who earned his rank after more than a decade of dedicated training. Red’s martial arts journey began in the mid-1990s with Muay Thai and quickly expanded to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, where he found his true passion. Alongside competing in MMA and grappling tournaments nationwide, Red combines his practical fight experience and academic background in biology and chemistry to shape a training environment grounded in technical precision and scientific principles. The academy’s curriculum reflects Red’s diverse martial arts background, offering classes across Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (both gi and no-gi), submission grappling, wrestling, boxing, kickboxing, and MMA grappling. Instruction is structured to build foundational skills before progressing to more advanced levels, with programs for youth, women, and adults. Wrestling here emphasizes takedown offense and defense tailored for self-defense and competition, while striking classes blend techniques from Muay Thai and Western boxing. Cardio kickboxing and combat conditioning provide fitness-focused options that complement the technical training. Students at Red Schafer MMA can participate in open mat sessions on Sundays, fostering additional practice time alongside regular classes. The gym also runs the Panther Wrestling Club during college semesters and offers sparring opportunities for those who have reached fundamental striking and grappling levels. Located on East Vienna Avenue in Milwaukee, the academy balances a commitment to evolving martial arts techniques with a focus on safety and consistent skill development.
