“We believe that Martial Arts is just not a training of our body but more of our mind”
In our mixed martial arts style, we use the stand-up fight concept. In addition, we provide training sessions for grappling and groundwork that are specifically designed for self-defense. We teach each martial art style in a systematic way, but the ultimate goal is to develop a unique fighting method. The name we give to this concept is X-FIGHT DEFENSE TRAINING (XDT). However, it is not a distinct style or technique. You learn the X-Fight system of fighting until you find your own unique fighting approach. Our students are taught respect and behavior as part of our training.
The X-Fight Academy is a unique platform for anyone aged 4 to 70 years old, offering a holistic approach to fitness. We offer a wide range of activities, such as Tae Kwon Do, Jeet Kune Do Concepts, Krav Maga defense training, and Kick Boxing sessions, with the goal of giving you the most effective physical and mental strength. The training has the potential to enhance overall health and decrease the risk of injury.
