The class

What to expect

Mixed martial arts blends striking, clinch and ground game into one complete system. UMA ran Malaysia's first MMA programme — you'll learn it from the gym that pioneered it.

Anyone — no fitness prerequisite; we'll build your base in striking and grappling first.

Getting here from Johor Bahru

We're right in the heart of Johor Bahru, at Taman Mount Austin — easy to reach from across the city. From the city centre it's roughly a 15–20 minute drive: take the Tebrau Highway or the EDL towards Taman Daya, then turn in at the Mount Austin commercial centre. We're above Happy Fish Swim School, with parking right outside the shoplots. You'll find us at 39-02, Jalan Mutiara Emas 10/19, Taman Mount Austin, 81100 Johor Bahru (Above Happy Fish).

We regularly have members training with us from the city centre, Taman Pelangi, Taman Molek, Taman Daya, Johor Jaya and Taman Setia Indah.
