Why Train Here

READY FOR THE
REAL THING

High school athletes are ready for real training. At Chicago MMA, they step onto the same mats as our adult members, learn from the same coaches, and develop under the same authentic lineages — Ralph Gracie BJJ and Sityodtong Muay Thai.

Training alongside adults accelerates development. It builds mental toughness, teaches humility, and exposes young athletes to a higher standard of technique and work ethic than any youth-only program can offer.

Whether your student is a complete beginner or already has experience, our coaches will meet them where they are and push them to grow.

Real Curriculum

No watered-down youth program — high school students train the same authentic material as adults.

Experienced Coaches

Learn from black belts, world champions, and former UFC fighters who coach at Chicago MMA every day.

20% Student Discount

All high school students receive a 20% discount on membership. Just show a valid student ID.

Scholarships Available

Financial barriers should never stop a motivated student. Scholarship opportunities are available — ask us.

Safe Environment

Our coaches set the tone. Training is hard but respectful. We have zero tolerance for bullying or rough play.

We Never Turn a Kid Away

If a student wants to train and can't afford it, we find a way. That's a promise.

Curriculum

WHAT YOU'LL TRAIN

The same disciplines our adult members train — no shortcuts, no watered-down curriculum.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

Train under the Ralph Gracie lineage — the same curriculum our adult competitors use. Gi and no-gi classes available at both locations.

Muay Thai

Authentic Sityodtong Muay Thai striking — footwork, combinations, clinch work, and pad rounds with experienced coaches.

MMA

Integrate striking and grappling in a structured, coach-supervised environment. Great for athletes who want a complete martial arts foundation.

Open Mat

Supplement your training with open mat sessions — roll with upper belts, ask coaches questions, and put in extra reps.
