Practical martial arts

I began martial arts in high school. That was a long time ago ;-) Over the years, I've trained a variety of styles in New York City, Chicago, and at multiple gyms in North and South Carolina. This has allowed me to witness firsthand an evolution that integrates numerous styles of striking and grappling, plus strength and conditioning, resulting in MMA. Fight Flow Academy is on the leading edge of this integrated approach. Head coach Marcus Davis is a walking encyclopedia of martial arts. He is the first instructor I've known who can take stiff, old school styles and apply them in a modern context. His experiences as a professional boxer, as a highly ranked UFC fighter, and as someone who worked relentlessly on his ground game (BJJ, Sambo, catch wrestling...) give him an exceptional perspective for teaching practical, effective, mixed martial arts. And the dude loves what he does! He has a passion for teaching that you can sense in his classes. That's why I'm here 🙂
