4worldlovers: Learn how to defend yourself and get in shape at the best MMA Gym in Puerto Rico!

Established in 2014, we are the best home grown and decorated MMA Academy in the island. Our program has produced MMA, Muay Thai & BJJ Champions in various organizations.

Our training facility consists of spacious mat space, a lounge for students and guests, showers, plenty of parking, security cameras and the biggest MMA Cage in the island at 25 x 25! The same as the UFC Apex Center.

We have near perfected the art of teaching in an environment that's friendly, but fierce. All our classes are taught by certified instructors with real competition experience!

We are more than just a school, we are a team. The bond our students have is un-matched, which is important for learning. In other words, all our higher rank students are encouraged to help the lower ranks, because everyone is treated like part of a team.

Also, a huge advantage we have on other schools is competition experience and UFC level instruction. We’ve been in business since 2014 and are blessed to have a very large student roster. Which means everyone from beginners to advanced ranks have tons of different training partners. This large variety is one of the reasons our students learn so quickly.

In addition, we have group and private classes everyday, so you can train up to 7 days a week. We always say, "You can train as much as your body can handle."

First and foremost, we offer quality instruction and training. Whether you want to be a champion or just get in shape, you can accomplish your goals in an uplifting, friendly environment under the supervision of qualified instructors.

Our curriculum is designed to help students achieve maximum results out of their time and effort.

All classes begin with a warm-up, followed by a technical lesson, drills, situationals and live rolls/spars.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a self defence martial art and combat sport based on grappling (ne-waza) and submission holds. It focuses on the skill of taking an opponent to the ground, controlling one's opponent, gaining a dominant position and using a number of techniques to force them into submission via joint locks or chokeholds.

Kickboxing in the Netherlands started in the 1970s after Dutchmen traveled to Japan to learn Japanese kickboxing, which was a mix of Kyokushin Karate and Muay Thai. Over the years, they further refined the style by incorporating more Western Boxing techniques. What emerged was the Dutch Kickboxing style.

Mixed Martial Arts is a full-contact combat sport based on striking, grappling and ground fighting, incorporating techniques from various combat sports and martial arts from around the world.

A stand-up combat sport, where fighters are not allowed to take the fight to the ground. It is fast-paced and combines both boxing and kicking in one swirling melee of a bout. In Thailand, it is known as the art of eight limbs, referring to the eight points of contact that are used to strike the opponent.

In conjunction with A Fighting Chance Foundation Group, a 501(c)(3) Federally approved Non Profit Organization, we will be providing FREE martial arts classes with the focus on Self Defense to the community. We are starting our Pilot Programs with Women and Kids (8-12), but will extend for men in the near future. Our Headquarters in San Juan will be the first to host this program. We will be extending to other municipalities such as, but not limited to, Guaynabo, Humacao, etc. in the near future. This program will be FREE OF CHARGE to the community.

Additionally, Women who have experience in martial arts or want more of a challenge are invited FREE OF CHARGE to take part in our regular classes at the Academy.

We are also working directly with the Wyndham Hotels in Rio Mar (Rio Grande) and Palmas del Mar (Humacao) in Puerto Rico to offer their community Muay Thai classes.

If you're in the area, look us up or send us a message and we'll be more than happy to offer privates!
