Train MMA the Right Way — Structured, Technical, and Purpose-Driven
Train Like a Fighter - Even if You're a Beginner!
At AntDawg's MMA Training Center in Gilroy, our Mixed Martial Arts program is built for athletes and individuals who want to train real MMA in a structured, professional, and supportive environment.
Our program blends striking, wrestling, and grappling into a complete system, while emphasizing technique, conditioning, and intelligent training. Whether your goal is to improve fitness, build confidence, or eventually compete, our MMA program is designed to meet you where you are and help you progress safely and consistently.

What Our MMA Training in Gilroy Includes
Our MMA classes in Gilroy integrate all aspects of the sport:
- Striking (boxing, kickboxing, Muay Thai fundamentals)
- Wrestling & takedowns
- Grappling & submissions
- Cage and positional awareness
- MMA-specific conditioning
- Controlled sparring and situational training
Every class is coached with intention. We focus on skill development first, then intensity — not the other way around.

Who This MMA Program Is For
Our MMA program is structured to support a wide range of students:
Adults New to MMA
You do not need prior experience. We emphasize fundamentals, safety, and progression so beginners can train confidently without feeling overwhelmed.
Experienced Martial Artists
For those with a background in striking or grappling, our MMA program helps you connect disciplines and apply them effectively in live MMA situations.
Athletes Interested in Competition
For students interested in competition, we provide a clear development pathway — from technical training to controlled sparring, and eventually into amateur or semi-contact opportunities when appropriate.
Adults Who Want to Improve Fitness
MMA training is one of the most effective full-body workouts available. Classes improve strength and conditioning, cardiovascular endurance, coordination, mobility, mental focus, and stress relief.
Our Training Philosophy
We believe MMA training should be:
- Structured, not chaotic
- Technical, not reckless
- Challenging, not intimidating
Our coaches focus on teaching athletes how to train consistently, recover properly, and build skills over time. This approach keeps students healthy, motivated, and progressing long-term.
