What Our MMA Students Say
★★★★★
This gym truly is one of the best in Malaysia and holds its place as a genuine MMA OG in the Malaysian scene. I've been training here focusing on both striking and grappling. The structure of the classes across the board is excellent. The coaches break down techniques beyond surface-level instruction and focus on details that make techniques functional in realistic combat scenarios. The environment is welcoming but serious, and everyone is there to improve.

What Are Our MMA Classes?

Our MMA classes focus on integrating multiple martial arts disciplines into a unified system. Training blends stand-up striking, clinch and wall work, takedowns, and ground fighting under MMA-specific rules and scenarios.

Rather than rushing students into mixing everything from day one, our approach emphasises technical foundations first, allowing skills from individual disciplines to be applied effectively and safely in MMA training.

MMA training develops coordination, timing, conditioning, and decision-making across all ranges of combat.

Adult MMA Classes

Our adult MMA classes are open to practitioners of all experience levels and delivered through structured, coach-led group sessions. Training includes technical drills, positional work, controlled sparring, and scenario-based rounds focused on skill development rather than unnecessary intensity.

New students typically begin through our Grappling Initiation class, which introduces essential movement, wrestling, and ground control concepts before progressing into full MMA training.

Women / Beginner Friendly

Our MMA program is beginner-friendly and open to both men and women. Classes are structured so new students can learn at a safe and comfortable pace while training alongside more experienced practitioners under close coaching supervision.

Safety, respect, and technical progression are prioritised at all times. No previous MMA experience is required to start.

MMA Training Foundations

Monarchy MMA Ground Game

Effective MMA training is built on strong fundamentals.

We encourage students to develop a solid base in disciplines such as Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Wrestling, Boxing, Muay Thai, Kickboxing, or No-Gi grappling before fully blending those skills in MMA. This foundation-first approach leads to better technique, reduced injury risk, and faster long-term progress.

MMA Classes for Kids

We do not offer MMA-specific classes for children.

Instead, younger students are encouraged to build strong foundations through age-appropriate martial arts programs such as Wrestling, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Boxing, Kickboxing, Muay Thai, and No-Gi grappling. This creates the ideal physical and technical base before transitioning into MMA training later as adults.
