I’m very happy to announce that my good friends and training partners Zach Costa and Jeff Bott will be opening a new Mixed Martial Arts training center at our former location inside Oakland Strength Factory – a great moment for Oakland MMA. Mixed Martial Arts is based on the idea of using what works and not being bound by tradition, which means using fighting techniques from all styles to build healthier, stronger people with real world self defense skills. Zach and Jeff will be drawing on their experience in jiujitsu, kickboxing, strength and conditioning to provide an excellent training experience for both kids and adults.
Our coach Omar Kasdi will be the head jiujitsu instructor. We are very proud to be a part of the Rio Combat family, headed by Diogo Gomes in Alameda, under the Carlson Gracie Jiujitsu association.
They are taking sign ups now and classes will start on June 3rd. Head over to their website, Catch MMA to add your name to the list and schedule a trial! Also be sure to follow them on Instagram and Facebook.
