Our Jeet Kune Do / MMA class covers all situations that could happen in the ring or on the street. This concept was developed by Bruce Lee and has continued to evolve thanks to world class martial artist’s and original Bruce lee students such as, Dan Inosanto and Richard Bustillo. These concepts have been handed down to Bobby Giordano and his team of instructors at the A.M.A.C and are now available to you!
The JKD/MMA class covers all aspects of Martial arts and self-defense. We incorporate techniques that are proven to work from a wide variety of styles. Our stand up curriculum consists of techniques from Muay Thai, Kickboxing, and Boxing covering punches, kicks, knees, elbows, clinch fighting, and some trapping techniques from wing chun. Techniques from Brazilian Jiu jitsu and shooto wrestling are incorporated to ensure that the student is comfortable on the ground. We cover everything from straight grappling and takedowns to throws and submissions. The Filipino Martial arts of Kali and Eskrima are also part of our curriculum covering stick and knife fighting for self-defense situations. The techniques from Kali and Eskrima are not limited to just sticks and knifes they could easily be adapted to a bottle, pen, scissors, keys, ect.
Our Muay Thai curriculum is straight from Thailand, It is a very challenging class! All aspects of Muay Thai are covered. Punching, kicking, knees, elbows, and clinching are taught through drills on pads, mitts, and bags as well as through sparring.

I joined amac in feb and was instantly impressed by the knowledge and understanding (of my greenness) of trainer Bobby G. As I was new to mma he impressed upon me the need for the discipline needed for the sport if I was ever interested in fighting which I am now currently training for. His knowledge in striking, kicking, grappling and ju-jitsu is extensive and I would not fail to recommend him to anyone.
