The only true MMA gym in Texas. All classes involve real MMA techniques and scenarios and feature a real MMA cage, which also happens to be the nicest cage you will find anywhere nearby. Grandmaster Cody Hoffstatter’s vast technical knowledge and his ability to distill and deliver it is unmatched, and his ability to challenge and get the best out of his students is equally unique.
