Pure MMA NYC - Mixed Martial Arts School in New York City
Welcome to Pure MMA NYC! We are dedicated to teaching realistic martial arts for the purposes
of self-defense and MMA competition.
Our training is designed to equip you with powerful fighting skills in all aspects of MMA:
STAND-UP - Muay Thai & Western Boxing (also JKD)
CLINCH - Freestyle & Greco-Roman Wrestling
GROUND - Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Please note, this school is not for fitness or for people who just want to train MMA to get
in shape. Rather, it's for individuals who want to learn MMA and develop its techniques.
Beginner Friendly Environment
Most of our students had ZERO martial arts
experience when they first started with us.
At this school, experience is simply
not required.
Beginners transition easily into our classes,
as all of our training is conducted safely,
intelligently, and according to what
your specific goals are.
You will feel welcome in our friendly
training environment where we have
fun learning and improving as a team.
We Are Purely an MMA School
> We do not teach ground-fighting with a gi
or focus on low percentage submissions
that are unlikely to ever work.
> We add strikes into our grappling and teach
how to utilize ground and pound as well as
defend against it.
> We don't offer kids classes or cardio-
kickboxing classes, or promote martial
arts as a tool for fitness.
> We train all of our stand-up techniques in
conjunction with sound takedown defense.
> We spend a lot of time on DEFENSE -
learning how to not get hit.
> In grappling, we put a strong emphasis
on escapes and reversals to protect
against being controlled or submitted.
> In stand up, we put a strong emphasis
on BOXING - powerful striking skills
that offer high levels of mobility.
> Simply put, everything we do is realistic
and meant to actually work in a real
MMA bout or self-defense situation.
Our goal is to provide quality instruction,
in a fun, safe atmosphere, to people
who want these skills.
Our mixed martial arts gym is in New
York City at the junction of 6th Ave
and 14th St (lower Manhattan).
Feel free to call or email us for more
information.
Our first demo video filmed at our original gym's location back in
2010 when we first started our MMA classes in NYC. Enjoy!
Most of the footage in this video was filmed during our boxing
classes.
Although it is true stand-up skills are becoming increasingly
essential to victory as the sport of MMA evolves, we still
practice plenty of grappling too! - clinch and ground skills
in MMA have been and will always be imperative.

[ LEARN FOUR OF THE MOST POWERFUL MARTIAL ARTS IN THE WORLD! ]
BOXING
Known as the sweet science, Boxing
showcases high speed, versatile hand
strikes combined with uncanny evasive-
ness and footwork. It enables for an
efficient and devastating offense
coupled with excellent mobility.
MUAY THAI
Harnessing the power of explosive
kicks, knees, and elbows takes your
attack options to the next level - making
you more of a threat. More importantly,
Muay Thai teaches how to defend
against kicks, which is essential.
WRESTLING
Wrestling skills are critical for dealing
with clinch-fighting and takedowns. Its
powerful grappling techniques can be
used to bring a fight to the ground or
to keep it standing, which is often a
determining factor in attaining victory.
BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is the premier skill-set
for ground-fighting. Its escapes and
reversals are life savers when faced
with bad grappling positions. In addition,
it adds dozens of fight-ending sub-
missions to your offensive tool-box.
UPCOMING EVENTS
Later this summer, Matt will be doing a new
seminar on nutrition, conditioning, and
mental training for MMA peak performance
and general well-being.
A central theme in the course will be how
to develop the motivation and discipline
needed to follow a strict training
regiment consistently.
The information presented will consist
of cutting-edge technologies stemming
from Neuro-Linguistic Programming,
Sports Psychology, and Exercise
Science.
However, most valuable, will be the
wealth of knowledge presented on
truly optimal nutrition, which very
