Nothing is Impossible

The mission statement at Evolve Mixed Martial Arts® is to empower our students to achieve a healthier, happier, and more productive life through the martial arts.  By creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for everyone, Evolve MMA hopes to enable its students to enjoy all the benefits of martial arts.

Here are some key benefits of Martial Arts (in no particular order):

a) Lose weight and body fat by burning up to 1,000 calories an hour
The proof is in the pudding.  Many members at Evolve MMA have gotten into the best shape of their lives, bar none.  Some have even lost 15-20 kilos since joining Evolve.  And yes, a great martial arts workout can burn up to 1,000 calories an hour.  All the programs at Evolve are designed to help you get your dream body.  For an inspiring success story, please click here

b) Get fit, healthy, and toned
At Evolve MMA, you can train across different martial arts such as Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Boxing, Wrestling, and more.  The benefit of doing so is that you will burn more calories and tone up different areas of your body.  As the latest literature on fitness shows, it is important "to shock the body" with different exercises and movements in order to maximize metabolic increases.  For more actual testimonials on Evolve Mixed Martial Arts, please click here.  

c) Learn the art of self-defense
Everything taught at Evolve MMA has been battle-tested, ring-proven, and street-certified.  One of the core founding principles of Evolve MMA is that all moves and techniques taught must work in a real self-defense situation.  To that end, we have brought the world's best instructors from Brazil, Thailand, US, Japan, and Korea to teach you.  All of our instructors are considered at the top of their respective fields and many of them are authentic World Champions.  In terms of a tennis analogy, you are learning how to hit a serve or a backhand from the likes of current and former World Champions such as Pete Sampras, Roger Federer, and Rafael Nadal.  At Evolve MMA, you will receive the best martial arts instruction available anywhere.  In fact, Evolve is widely considered the top martial arts training organization in Asia and one of the top academies in the world.  Evolve is the only school in the world to house World Champions in Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Boxing, and No Gi Grappling.  If you train regularly at Evolve MMA, we expect that you will be able to defend yourself in 95% of self-defense situations after 1 year of training with us.  For more on the Evolve Instructor Team, please click here.    

d) Inherit more confidence, mental strength, and self-discipline
Most people think that martial arts is 100% physical.  Yes, it is true that you will be able to gain the physical skills and fitness levels to defend yourself.  However, martial arts is far more than just the physical part.  At Evolve, you will inherit more confidence and it will permeate in all areas of your life.  It is very empowering to know that you can defend yourself in real life.  From our classes, your endurance will be tested and your mental toughness will be sharpened.  As work towards each goal, you will inherit more self-discipline.  It is no surprise that students at Evolve MMA come from all walks of life:  university students, reporters, CEOs, professional fighters, entrepreneurs, waiters, nurses, engineers, personal trainers, doctors, hedge fund managers, and more.

e) Release stress, feel rejuvenated, and increase your energy level
One of the best things about doing martial arts is the "natural adrenaline high" that you feel after training.  It happens to almost all of our students.  They might walk into Evolve from a bad day, but they invariably walk out more rejuvenated, relaxed, and happier.  Martial arts training is an all-encompassing discipline; you will work out physically, mentally, and emotionally.  At Evolve MMA, we firmly believe in the power of martial arts to unleash the human potential. 

f) Improve your flexibility and range of motion
Martial arts training improves your flexibility and range of motion.  It is no mystery that moving your body in new ways and pushing your limits will benefit your range of motion.  The simple act of kicking a heavy bag will stretch out your hamstrings, your hips, your calves, and your back.  Across all of the martial arts taught at Evolve MMA, you will use virtually every muscle in your body and you will see increased flexibility.  

g) Meet different people and make new friends
The most special thing about Evolve MMA is its strong family culture.  Evolve is a place that becomes your second home.  It is common to see our members leaving together as a group after training to have dinner together or to enjoy the weekend together.  Our staff, instructors, and students are one big family.  We share a common desire for excellence and teamwork is something encouraged strongly at Evolve.  For a testimonial on this aspect of Evolve, please click here.  

h) Unleash your potential as a human being
As corny as it may sound, martial arts will help you physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.  How do we know?  If you look at the lives of our instructors, they have accomplished some amazing things in life and are living testaments to what the power of martial arts can do to unleash the human spirit.  Some of our instructors have gone from being orphans to becoming World Champions.  And some others have gone on to receive their masters degrees in law, business, and health from top universities around the world.  And most of them have gone from living in utter poverty to creating a remarkable life.  For some interesting facts and tidbits on our instructors, please click here.

In conclusion, there are tremendous life-changing benefits to martial arts.  Above all though, it is super fun and rewarding!  It is a journey of continuous self-improvement filled with adventure, smiles, tears, and progress.
