Mixed Martial Arts (adults & teens): First introduced into the Olympic Games in 648 B.C. during the 33rd Olympiad, pankration was considered the ultimate combat sport of ancient Greece. However, it was more than just a sport. Called by Philostratos the "Worthiest contest in the Olympiads and the most important preparation for warriors", pankration was the martial training of the Greek armies and was taken to India with the legions of Alexander the Great, where it became the accepted ancestor of the Asian martial arts.

Today, pankration is experiencing a worldwide re-birth, with an increasing number of martial artists and athletes being drawn to this ancient "King of Olympic Sports" known know as Mixed Martial Arts. "MMA" as it has become known, re-assembles the fragments of Pankration in it's forms of striking in Western Boxing, Muay Thai kickboxing, along with takedowns from Greco-Roman and Freestyle Wrestling, and submission locks and chokes from Russian Sambo, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and American Catch Wrestling.

Boxing: From it's ancient roots (Pugilism), to the modern sport, Boxing has enjoyed a long popularity. This class teaches the training methods and application of the "sweet science" of Boxing, the most effective of hands only martial arts.

Kids Pankration: From ages 5 to 8, and ages 8 to 12, this course teaches the fundamentals of discipline, focus and challenge in a fun and nurturing place. Basics of striking, wrestling and fitness forge confidence and real abilty to apply these skills and attitudes towards any further endeavors.
