    MMA is without doubt the fatest growing sport in the world and at Trojan Free Fighters it is our aim to disspell the current perception that "cagefighting" has by getting the local area involved in the sport and providing a safe, friendly environment to practice all disciplines for martial arts.

    It teaches that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend against a bigger, stronger assailant by using leverage and proper technique—most notably by applying joint-locks and chokeholds to defeat the other person. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu training can be used for sport grappling tournaments (gi and no-gi) and mixed martial arts (MMA) competition or self defense.
