Loading...Savannah Martial Arts Academy and Redline MMA in Pooler, Georgia, offers the most realistic self-defense training available while also focusing on fitness and Mixed Martial Arts and BJJ Grappling Competitions. As a mixed-martial arts school, we appreciate the benefits of learning for competition, but also see the realistic need for self-defense for men, women, and children. Therefore, we present our techniques in a realistic and easy-to-learn method.
Our training style is a mixed martial arts style in which each student learns techniques for punching, kicking, clinching, taking down their opponent, and submitting their opponent. Our specific style of MMA is called Zanshindo and has a set curriculum of techniques. Our techniques are the best from the best fighting systems including strong kicks from Muay Thai, Karate, and Kickboxing; punches from boxing and Muay Thai, takedowns from freestyle and Greco-Roman wrestling, Judo, and Jiu-Jitsu; and submissions and ground control from Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Judo, Sambo, Catch Wrestling, and other styles. We do not focus on forms or katas and do not focus on the spiritual side of martial arts. We are a self-defense and competition school, not a religious organization. That being said, we do not discriminate in any way, we just focus on the physical and mental aspects of fighting.
