No! You are never too old to start martial arts. We have seen and trained with Jiu Jitsu practitioners as old as 80 years young! We have also come across veterans that started their MMA journey in their early 70s. We can tailor our class for your individual needs.
No! While we aim to be a competition-based school, there is absolutely no pressure to compete on our behalf. Competing is simply a way for you to test your skills at various levels and take your martial arts and fitness journey to new heights. Because you will be among many high level competitors, your ability to excel will be be expedited naturally through the focused and supportive environment that we provide for everyone.
Yes! Self-defense is one of the main aspects of mixed martial arts. Jiu Jitsu, Muay Thai and Boxing each have specific elements of self-defense that you will learn. You will also learn to recognize dangerous scenarios and we will focus on improving your knowledge and mindset on when it makes sense to trigger your fight or flight responses.
We take cleanliness as top priority at Droogs MMA & JJ. Our martial arts gym emphasizes a thorough cleaning process with a specific bleach-based solution. Our mats are cleaned between every class and all of the equipment is wiped after use. Our ZEBRA mats are designed to absorb contact areas well and prevent any type of slippery areas. Everyone must shower prior to and after classes, whether at home or our location. Members will not be allowed to train if they have any skin infections or illnesses.
The most important things to bring are yourself and a positive, open-minded attitude! Besides for that, water bottles, a towel to shower and whatever gear you will need for your specific sport.
(gloves and shin pads for Muay Thai and Boxing, mouth guards for all, gi for Jiu Jitsu).
You can start at anytime and you DO NOT need to be in shape to begin. Start your journey with our mixed martial arts gym today by e-mailing us at info@droogsmma.com or calling 484-883-1399
