Bridging Sport, Art and Real-World Combat

Known for its ultra fast transitions and real-world effectiveness, Combat Sambo combines elements of Judo, Jiu-Jitsu, Greco-Roman & Freestyle Wrestling, Karate and Boxing.

Learn how to stay in your opponents blind spots and dictate the action using easy-to-learn grip strategies, footwork, energy conservation and leverage.

You’ll revisit fundamental lessons with added complexity and interconnectedness as you develop your own unique style

"My first Jiu-Jitsu, Sambo, MMA experience was at your class. Thank you for cultivating such a positive culture on the mat that allowed me to feel comfortable sticking with the martial arts."
