Mark Spencer would like to share a quick update about the SBG Bradford Mixed Martial Arts Academy with the local sports community.
As some of you might know, Mark's a 5th Dan black belt in Kickboxing, a black belt in Kudo, and also quite seasoned in BJJ (Brazilian Jiu Jitsu) - over 20 years of martial arts experience on his belt (pun intended).
The Academy, which is based in Bradford, covers a variety of martial arts, including BJJ, Submission Grappling, Kickboxing, and Kudo. It's got a strong connection with SBG (Straight Blast Gym) for their Brazilian Jiu Jitsu programme, so you can count on top-notch instruction with a big focus on getting those techniques right.
Mark and Marie run the show there, with Mark taking on the role of head coach. He's helped loads of athletes hit high notes in different MMA, BJJ, Nogi, and Kudo competitions. Plus, he's led the Team England MMA Youth, Junior, and Senior Teams.
On the exciting news front, the Academy’s just moved to Planet Fitness on Halifax Road (BD6). They are now offering BJJ, Kickboxing, and Kudo classes two nights a week - nice and flexible for everyone.
Marie knows her stuff too. She’s a purple belt in BJJ, 8th KYU in Kudo, and a green belt in Kickboxing. Since 2013, she's been training hard, competing in amateur MMA, and has been a great support for Team England MMA Youth at the World Championships.
The Academy's vibe is open, friendly, and welcoming, catering to everyone whether you're looking to compete, learn, or just get fit. They've got flexible membership options, so you can pay per session or opt for a monthly membership - whatever fits best with your current routine.
The place is all about positivity and growth, thanks to Mark and Marie's dedication and expertise. If you decide to join, you're in for some excellent instruction, focusing on skill development, fitness, and personal growth.
