Mixed Martial Arts Training in San Diego

Mixed martial arts (MMA) is the combination of many martial arts into one overarching combat sport. Many skilled fighters find one style is not enough of a challenge and choose to branch out into MMA to explore their true capabilities.

The Training Center was founded with MMA in mind. Our program is led by former UFC fighter and legend in the sport, Chris Leben. Chris has the most middleweight fights in UFC history and was the first WEC Middleweight champion, making him a true veteran of the sport. Chris’s experience and passion for coaching make his MMA program in San Diego second to none.

Train MMA With Pro Fighters

The Training Center does not offer MMA classes that are open to the public. However, we offer training and membership on our competitive San Diego MMA team by invitation. Additionally, we provide focused jiu jitsu, boxing, and kickboxing classes, allowing you to focus on becoming a well-rounded fighter before beginning your MMA journey.
