2 . DO YOUR RESEARCH

If you happen to already be training in other martial arts disciplines , you probably would already know just how important spending time to research options truly is . For example , our panel of experts unanimously agree that just because a training camp happens to be run by MMA ‘ stars ’ or popular fighters , doesn ’ t make it automatically a great option . Travis of Evolved MMA stated it best “ I think the best MMA camps are driven by a team of experienced coaches and fighters . Just because a certain brand or name is associated with something doesn ' t mean it is good ”.
As highlighted on our recent Pro MMA Now post “ How to Choose the Right MMA Martial Arts Training Camp ”, when it comes to MMA , choosing the right training camp can also be a lot like choosing a life partner . It ’ s not really about how perfect they are , it ’ s more about how they are perfect for you . So , rather than being ‘ blinded ’ by a camp ’ s glitz and glamor when considering your options , choose to ‘ dig ’ deeper and be on the look out for these top five factors instead :
1 .
Qualifications of trainers and training program
2 .
Class size & atmosphere
3 .
Facilities & equipment
4 .
Price
5 .
Location
