Kenpo Karate in action

BJJ is the definitive fighting style, and with its effectiveness in the UFC, it is also the fastest growing sport in the world today. No matter what your age, size or gender, BJJ combined with Kenpo and MMA can help you meet your training goals. As a self-defense system, it teaches battle-tested techniques that not only help you to protect yourself but also to build the self-confidence that makes you less likely to be a victim in the first place. As a fitness program, BJJ combined with Kenpo and MMA develops the kind of functional strength and endurance that will benefit even the elite athlete. AFRICAN MMA provides a fun and structured environment where you will train with other people striving to meet these same goals.
