Viva MMA BJJ & Kickboxing

Viva offers Mixed Martial Arts, Kickboxing, Submission Wrestling and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu classes at our gym in Tameside, Manchester. We strongly believe in training alive and remain true to our values of authenticity, honesty and sincerity in all that we do and offer. Many of our members train combat sports with us as a hobby or for fitness, but we also have, and support members who are actively competing in MMA and BJJ, locally in Manchester, nationally and internationally. We always look to leave our ego's at the door because in the gym, on the mats everyone is equal. Rank and Hierarchy play little role in our training we're all referred to on first name terms. You'll never be expected to bow down to anyone nor should you expect anyone to bow down to you, we just have good manners and a light-hearted yet serious approach to training.

We are also proud to be the only gym in Tameside to offer a true Kids MMA and Kids BJJ program this places us at the forefront of Kids Martial Arts in Manchester. Providing children the opportunity to train legitimate combat sports and effective, proven martial arts in a realistic yet safe environment. We encourage questions and innovation even from our youngest members. You'll not see our kids in rank and file mindlessly following orders, we don't do kata, it's not how a fight unfolds this isn't Karate, instead we encourage self discipline and self motivation.
