Mixed Martial Arts isn’t a Mix of just any Style ...  

Brazilian Jiu-jitsu and Contact Striking – The Right Mix of Martial Arts.

Modern Mixed Martial Arts competition was invented by Brazilian Jiu-jitsu practitioners in order to showcase their style as superior. Before becoming popular here in the U.S., it was known as "Vale Tudo" (anything goes) in Brazil. We were the first school in the area to teach Vale Tudo, long before "Mixed Martial Arts" was a popular phrase or accepted as a sport.  In the first few Ultimate Fighting competitions, Brazilian Jiu-jitsu was pitted against nearly every style of martial arts and easily came out dominant, even over other grappling styles despite enormous weight differences. A 170lb Brazilian Jiu-jitsu (BJJ) practitioner wearing a Jiu-jitsu Gi defeated much heavier and accomplished practitioners of Judo, Wrestling, Submission Wresting, Karate, Kung Fu, Kickboxing and Boxing. When the point was made overwhelmingly that BJJ was the most complete martial art, fighters began to realize that they had to know it in order to beat it. Promoters soon realized that they needed to add rules, time limits and rounds in order to attract an American public who was used to watching striking sports like Boxing; this in turn gave full contact striking arts a fighting chance. Arts like Boxing, Kickboxing and Muay Thai were then added to the training regimen of MMA fighters and what we now know as a complete Mixed Martial Arts program was born. We use this tried and true method of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu and contact striking in our MMA program at NYMAG.  

Often Imitated, Never Duplicated.  Don't Settle for Less than the Source!

There are some who try to copy our method or identity and while imitation is the highest form of flattery to us, it is a disservice to the student. We are the Mid-Hudson Valley's First and Original Source of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu and Mixed Martial Arts Instruction; we have been teaching MMA in the area for over a decade and didn’t start our program recently just to fit a trend. Our instructors are all long-time practitioners and experts in the art(s) that they teach. We are not a Karate School trying to keep up and our instructors don't use their students as training dummies; we are this area’s Source for experienced, professional instruction.

Look at the Accomplishments of the Student!

Of course your teacher is great … but what about you??? We are an MMA school and are dedicated to teaching and producing the best possible student, not to promoting the ego of one school owner. When colleges advertise to potential students, they talk about what their students have accomplished and their prestige as an institution is based on the success of their graduates. Why should it be any different for a Martial Arts School? We are a Martial Arts Academy and feel that we are only as accomplished as the successes of our students.  Our Student’s Accomplishments are Our Credentials; while some others advertise or buy into the credentials of one instructor or association, we focus on what our students have accomplished and what we can do for you. Students who have trained at our school have gone on to win at the highest levels of the sport and our recreational students benefit from that experience.

At NYMAG, YOU are the next big thing and your goals are what matter; this is the place you’ll train at to get there!
