About this collection
Our training environment is not a polished fitness studio with air conditioning. It is a garage-style gym designed for endurance and real-world results. Expect heat, honest sweat, and functional EVA foam mats—the exact setup you need to build fight-ready conditioning, not just look like you are training.
At 1026, we don't believe in gym decor. When you see our fighters rolling or hitting pads, you are seeing the result of 2-hour sessions where we focus on technique, conditioning, and mental grit. Our Yelahanka and Amruthahalli centers are built for one thing: getting the work done.
Why '1026'? It is about the family. We celebrate together when someone wins, and we pick each other up when the rounds are tough. We do not segregate by gender, and we do not make excuses for people who want to slack off. Whether you are a kid just starting out or an adult prepping for a cage fight, you get the same intensity. We shout 'Hodi!' because we want you to hit with purpose. We call you 'Maga' because you are part of the team.
If you are looking for a place where you can hide in the corner, this is not it. But if you want a place that treats you like family and demands you become the best version of yourself, then you belong here. We combine the discipline of BJJ, the precision of boxing, and the chaos of MMA to ensure that by the time you leave, you are not just stronger—you are a champion in life.
