We produce well-rounded athletes who are comfortable and dangerous from any range or position.  In competition, striking and grappling techniques flow together throughout the fight.  With that in mind, we don't teach Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Boxing or any traditional martial art for that matter. 

  

That said, we do train our striking (standing and on the mat), takedowns/throws/clinchwork, and the submission game.  The difference is that our coaches merge those strategies, blending striking and grappling attacks seamlessly for use in competition.  When practicing takedowns, we use strikes as set-ups to increase the likelihood of putting our opponent on his back without taking much damage and avoiding submissions.  Along the same lines, we practice our stand-up with the mindset that modern day fighters must ALWAYS be ready to defend takedowns.  So adjustments are made to the striking to account for clinchwork and takedown defense.

BuckeyeMMA runs adult classes Mon-Fri and holds open mat on Saturday. Students ages 13 and above are elligible to take classes, though minors will need signed parental consent to participate. Having a previous background in another combat sport (wrestling, boxing, thai boxing, ect) is helpful but not necessary.  We have built many fighters from the ground up with the student coming in with nothing more than desire and athleticism. 

 

Each weekday class focus's on a different skill set and is taught, then drilled, with specific fight scenarios in mind.  Attacks are broken down by position and according to individual style. Students recieve 1-on-1 attention and time is taken to ensure that strategies, attacks/defenses, and philosophies are understood by everyone.  

  

The adult MMA program is offered as a part-time or full-time enrollment. Because time and money are always major considerations, especially with a tough economy, we created the different enrollments as alternative solutions based on the students' schedule, finances, and goals.

At BuckeyeMMA we believe that a strong ground game is the most beneficial foundation from which to start. To help develop that grappling base, we've instituted our Youth Submission Wrestling (YSW) program. Proper use of body weight, balance, leverage, and positioning can take years of practice to master.  Getting our athletes started at a young age will give them a tremendous advantage over those who are only just getting their feet wet as teenagers or young adults.
