Jon Dale’s club, Balance Mixed Martial Arts in Stockton-on-Tees, is your go-to place for MMA training. With a mix of striking, wrestling, and Brazilian Jiujitsu (BJJ), Balance MMA caters to all skill levels, making sure everyone trains in a safe and inclusive environment.
In Jon’s MMA classes, you’ll cover everything from striking practice and situational sparring to takedowns and BJJ. Sessions involve controlled sparring with MMA gloves and shin pads, promoting mutual respect and sportsmanship.
Focused on ground-based control and submissions, BJJ at Balance MMA is led by Jon himself, a 2-stripe brown belt under Team Lagarto. You’ll work through a well-structured curriculum of drills and techniques, all while wearing a Gi.
The MMA striking classes mix boxing, Thai boxing, and kickboxing, helping you develop an all-around striking game with an eye on takedown defence.
To boost your athletic performance, the MMA FIT programme offers functional strength and conditioning, aiming to enhance your movement and explosiveness for better MMA performance.
For those needing personalised training, Jon offers one-hour private sessions at £30 each, covering strength and conditioning, MMA, BJJ, striking, and wrestling. These are available at specific times around the regular class schedule, and the gym assistant can help pair you with a training partner if needed.
With over 30 years of experience, Jon has trained and competed in various martial arts disciplines. He continues to compete in BJJ and trains alongside his students at Balance MMA.
