The Daily Grind: Training Culture and Community Moments
See what happens beyond the sparring drills. This is the grit, sweat, and community spirit that makes 1026 MMA more than just a gym.
A look back at some of the best moments from our year. This video captures the sweat, grit, and camaraderie that defines the 1026 way of life.
To be a champ, you have to believe in yourself. Here are some of our students putting in the work during our MMA classes.
About this collection
It is not just about learning how to throw a jab or execute a clean takedown. On the mats, you will see our students—kids and adults alike—supporting each other through the tough conditioning drills. Whether it is a shared post-workout meal or a group cheer for a teammate at a local tournament, the bond formed here is what keeps people coming back long after they have mastered the basics.
We built this academy because we wanted more than just a place to workout. We wanted a place where the grind matters, where every drop of sweat counts, and where someone is always in your corner. In these moments, you will see the reality of our training sessions—from the high-energy striking classes where we focus on form and explosive power, to the controlled BJJ sessions where we work on leverage and patience.
We operate in Yelahanka and Amruthahalli, creating spaces where local residents can train without the ego you might find at other commercial gyms. When you join, you are not just paying for a monthly pass. You are entering a community that trains to compete, but lives to support. We keep our coach-to-student ratios low (1:10 to 1:15) during our evening batches so you get actual correction on your technique, not just a generic workout. You will learn BJJ, wrestling, and kickboxing, but you will also learn how to handle pressure and push past your perceived limits.
1026 MMA Academy
I am always on the mat shouting, 'Push, push!' and giving big 'Super, maga, super!' when a student nails a move. At 1026, we do not just build fighters; we build champions in life. This is where we sweat, struggle, and celebrate together.
