UCL Mixed Martial Arts club is UCL’s most diverse martial arts club, formed to teach you the best techniques from all of the most powerful fighting styles. Those styles include Muay Thai, Karate, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Judo. Memberships in the local economy can cost up to £100 a month to train, but we offer a year-long membership for a one-time cost of £100!!! 

Join our sessions to receive fitness training as well as fight training.  We will provide a very easy-to-learn methodology and whether you have no idea how to throw a punch or if you have already fought amateur bouts you will be engaged in training that suits you at your level.

For those interested in more fitness and training you will be able to learn the techniques using a Crawl, Walk, Run method of learning where we explain the technique, then demonstrate it, then do it together. 

For those interested in fighting and competing, we will hone your skills and put together a special Fight Team dedicated to higher-level training where you can push yourselves to your limits safely.

We will also produce club socials and outings where you can relax, have fun, and get to know everyone from the club in contexts outside of the gym.

Whatever your fitness or experience level, come to one of our sessions, learn how to fight, learn how to protect yourself, get fit, and make new friends while you’re at it.
