Or train with limits, focusing only on sport and competition.

One path builds a fighter for the moment.

Sotai MMA:  
For competition champions:
The Sotai MMA syllabus draws from a deep well of knowledge selecting proven techniques from over 480 Sotai Kempo techniques, refined specifically for MMA competition.

This is training without excess.
All techniques that have no place in sport, such as eye strikes, groin attacks, small joint manipulation, and rule-restricted actions are removed. What remains is what wins.

The syllabus focuses on four decisive areas:

Striking mastery - effective punching, kicking, and intelligent blocking
Takedown defense - stopping the tackle, reversing momentum, and turning defense into advantage
Escape under pressure - breaking free from any grab or clinch encountered in a bout
Ground dominance - pins and control that force submission or end the fight decisively

Finally, fighters are trained to finish quickly and efficiently from full mount no wasted motion, no hesitation.

Train in whatever clothing works for you.
No gradings. No belts. No certificates.

  Only performance.    Only results.     Only champions.
