R-Grip

This is a great gym if you want to learn MMA. There are 18 lessons per week (three per day, six days a week) and you can take all of them if you become a member (and if you have an insane amount of stamina). But also if you are thinking of trying boxing, kickboxing, grappling or just would like to do stamina enhancing exercises, this could be the place for you. The atmosphere is relatively relaxed and friendly (no staredowns in the locker room or going all out against people that are obviously new to the sport). But it is still a contact sport so do bear in mind that you will have to take a punch, kick or arm bar at times (don’t worry, you are wearing an armor worth of protection to ensure you don’t get injured, it just hurts a little bit). You can do competition in MMA and grappling or just train for fun, it’s up to you.
Euhm yeah, what else is there to say? It’s an extremely addictive, complex and (for me at least) fun martial art. You can get trial lesson for 10 euros I think. So if you live in Amsterdam and you think you could get into this martial art, I’d say give it a try!

This MMA gym is really good and has produced lots of champions!
Marlous Coenen is a former world champion and is fighting at Bellator next month and is an example for lots of women.
Her partner and my trainer Roemer Trompert is a 3 degree Black Belt Tae Kwondo and a MMA veteran who fought all over the world.
There are trainings 6 days a week and the atmosphere is very good!
So let’s meet on the mat!!!
