Confidence Building

  How Does Training in MMA Build Confidence for Both Kids and Adults? 

One of the biggest benefits students of mixed martial arts learn is an increase in confidence. Ironically very few students start their MMA training even realizing that is a potential benefit. Most end up pleasantly surprised to find this naturally happens over time, showing another reason MMA is so important for developing children and teens as well as adults.

• So how does training in MMA build confidence for both kids and adults?

There are a number of reasons why the students at Takedown MMA and Fitness end up feeling more confident practically from the minute they walk through our doors for the first time.

• It’s about knowing you can protect and defend yourself. Learning moves and techniques used for MMA training naturally gives you moves and techniques crucial for self-defense. Knowing you are beginning to have the power to defend yourself should the need arise automatically makes you more confident. A great side benefit is that by appearing more confident you are also decreasing your chances of looking like an easy target and even having to deal with an attacker.

• It’s about getting in the best shape of your life. You may have even had fitness or weight loss goals before but failed to meet them. It is common for people to try getting a personal trainer and going to the gym only to get bored and give up. MMA training is actually fun, and you will look forward to heading to training instead of dread going to the gym. This means you can’t help but finally get in the best shape of your life.

• It’s about doing something you may have never thought was possible for you. The average person has a mental image in their head when it comes to what they assume the average MMA training student looks like. This tends to keep anyone who thinks they do not fit that mold from giving MMA training a try. Yet those who do finally stop letting the stereotype stand in the way find a very different experience than what they initially envisioned. Being proud of taking that adventurous first step is a huge confidence builder.

• It’s about setting, reaching for and achieving goals. Both kids and adults have a habit of not setting goals. Unfortunately this can lead to lacking that sense of pride and self-worth. When you set the goal to just come in and check out our studio you are starting a pattern of setting goals for MMA, fitness, your health and life in general. Setting, reaching for and achieving these goals all begins to build your confidence in ways you never imagined.
