PROGRAMS

Coaching through an ecological perspective

At KLIQ MMA, we view learning through an ecological lens and our practice is guided and informed by ecological dynamics or an "ecological approach" to motor learning and skill acquisition.

What does this mean practically speaking? Ecological dynamics is the idea that learning and performance are shaped by the interaction between the individual, their environment, and the task at hand. In practical terms, this means that we design training that unscripted and uncooperative (live), encouraging them to problem-solve, adapt, and learn in real-world conditions. We believe in creating environments where athletes can explore and discover solutions, rather than simply following prescribed drills. Reading about it won't do it justice, come see what we're all about for yourself!

MMA

Learn the Complete Game of MMA from the jump!

Our all-levels MMA program introduces you to the full spectrum of mixed martial arts. Whether you're a complete beginner or sharpening your existing skills, you’ll explore striking, grappling and the coupling of the two from your very first day!

STRIKING

Master Effective Striking, Not Just Movements

Our striking program focuses on developing real striking skills, not just mimicking movements for exercise. In a safe, supportive, and fun environment, you’ll learn the true foundations of striking.

GRAPPLING

The Region's First Exclusively No-Gi Grappling Gym

At KLIQ MMA, we focus on the essence of grappling—manipulating the human body, not the fabric of a gi.

We’ve eliminated the gi, believing it to be an accident of history, originally designed to mimic traditional Japanese clothing and not at all ressembling clothing in today's day and age.

Our approach to grappling has all facets of grappling in mind as well which we believe are:

1) Taking someone to the ground (Takedowns/Trips/Throws)

2) Getting back up from the ground when on bottom (Escapes) & Getting on top from the bottom position (Reversals)

3) Controlling someone on the ground (Pins & Rides)

4) Forcing someone to submit (Submission Holds)

We value all aspects of grappling given the fact that at its core, we are an MMA gym (it's in our name after all) whereas many grappling gyms put much of their training time into top vs bottom grounded scenarios (Guard vs Passer) because the way grappling is predominantly scored in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu tournaments incentivizes this behaviour to emerge.

KLIQ KIDS

Building Robust, Intuitive, and Caring Kids Through Play

Ages: 5-7 & 8-12 years old
Focus: Grappling (MMA coming soon!)

Our kids' program is designed to keep your child physically engaged and having fun through rough-and-tumble play.

Unlike traditional martial arts programs that emphasize passive discipline, we believe self-discipline and resilience are best fostered through movement and play. In a world where children are often required to sit still and listen, our program encourages them to explore, move, and learn in a dynamic environment.

Grappling builds not only physical strength but also intuition, care, and robustness—essential skills for life.

Stay tuned as we expand our offerings to include MMA for kids!
