OUR CLASSES

BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU

(BJJ) is a martial art, combat sport, and a self defense system that focuses on grappling and especially ground fighting. BJJ promotes the concept that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend against a bigger, stronger assailant by using leverage and proper technique, taking the fight to the ground – most notably by applying joint-locks and chokeholds to defeat the other person. BJJ training can be used for sport grappling tournaments (gi and no-gi) and mixed martial arts (MMA) competition or self-defense. Sparring(commonly referred to as “rolling”) and live drilling play a major role in training, and a premium is placed on performance, especially in competition, in relation to progress and ascension through its ranking system.

KICKBOXING/BOXING/MUAY THAI

Kickboxing is a group of stand-up combat sports based on kicking and punching, historically developed from karate mixed with boxing. Kickboxing is practiced for self-defence, general fitness, or as a contact sport. Muay Thai or Thai boxing is a combat sport of Thailand that uses stand-up striking along with various clinching techniques. This discipline is known as the “Art of Eight Limbs” because it is characterized by the combined use of fists, elbows, knees & shins. Here at Pinnacle we use elements from Kickboxing, Muay Thai and Boxing to develop our MMA training.

WRESTLING

Wrestling is one of the oldest sport known to man. There are three main styles all with there own separate rules; Greco Roman, Freestyle and Folkstyle. Each style can be implemented into MMA, Jiu Jitsu or blended together to make a superior wrestler.

MIXED MARTIAL ARTS (MMA)

Mixed martial arts, also known as MMA, is a term for the combat sport in which two competitors attempt to achieve dominance over one another by utilizing three general tactics: striking, finishing holds, and control. The rules allow the combatants to use a variety of martial arts techniques including punches, kicks, joint-locks, chokes, takedowns and throws. MMA is also used to describe any modern style of martial arts which incorporate techniques and theories from several sportive martial arts. This especially applies to MMA styles which incorporate a mixture of ground fighting, stand-up striking, and takedowns in their training. Here at Pinnacle we provide a balance of classes to support the overall development of our MMA students.
