Welcome to Platinummma
Platinum Mixed Martial Arts opened in 2008 in London, Ontario, offering MMA style training to men and women ages 14 years and older. In January 2009, Platinum moved to the location of the new Gold’s Gym located in south London. As of February 2009, classes will be held in their new 6000 square foot mixed martial arts gym fully outfitted with a 22 foot Octagon fighting cage, wrestling mats, and hanging heavy bags.
What is MMA (Mixed Martial Arts)? MMA is the fastest growing sport in North America. It is a full contact combat sport that allows a wide variety of fighting techniques, from a mixture of martial arts traditions and non-traditions, to be used in competitions. Fighters make use of striking and grappling techniques, both while standing and on the ground.
Mixed martial arts training is offered using techniques from the following specialties:
• Jiu Jitsu
• Boxing
• Greco Roman Wrestling
• Muay Thai
• Submission Fighting
A sample class might include MMA style warm up on state of the art fitness machines, training moves (i.e. Submission escapes, Komura, Guillotine), stand up or grappling sparring and round robin training sessions.
Benefits to joining an MMA class include:
• Get in shape – MMA is a great addition to any workout schedule building both strength and cardiovascular conditioning.
• Learn defense and build self confidence
• Learn discipline while still having fun
Who Can Join: All levels of experience are welcome from beginners through advanced.
In addition we will be offering the following:
• As a member of the Canadian Jiu Jitsu Council, Platinum will begin classes in early 2009 with a qualified instructor offering official belt rankings. Platinum is hoping to run Jiu-Jitsu classes for both adults and kids.
• Platinum will be bringing in professional MMA fighters from K-1, UFC, and Strike Force for ‘Meet & Greets’ and to run seminars.
• Tournaments: Platinum will be running grappling tournaments open to all weight classes and levels of experience. Our next date will be announced shortly.
