THE TRAINING. THE PEOPLE. THE EXPERIENCE.
Get to know your program.
At Edge Combat Arts we strive to bring you the very best martial arts classes possible! Taught by quality instructors with both amateur and professional combat experience, Edge Fitness LLC brings you a unique look into the world of martial arts.
No-Gi Grappling
Build real grappling skills in a practical, high-energy training environment. Our No-Gi Grappling program combines techniques and concepts from Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), wrestling, and Sambo to help you become a more complete grappler.
Classes focus on developing skills from every major position, including escapes, submissions, positional control, transitions, takedowns, and takedown defense. You’ll learn how to move from one position to another, control an opponent, escape bad positions, and recognize opportunities to finish with effective submissions.
Whether you’re brand new to grappling or already have experience, our goal is to help you continually sharpen your technique, conditioning, and ability to apply what you learn against a resisting partner.
