The best way to learn any physical skill is through a well planned progression. Mixed Martial Arts is no different. This professionally designed progression will allow any dedicated participant to achieve a high level of proficiency.
This is an outline of the requirements necessary for completion of Level 2. Before you are eligible for testing, you must have obtained the specified amount of hours and your skill must be up to par. You are encouraged to take notes and practice with other participants outside of class to further improve your skill level. Please feel free to ask questions.
