- [Video: A single leg takedown attempt is a common attack. I teach you how to not just defend it, but turn it into a dominant side control or a key lock submission. It's about being two steps ahead.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/e31b8d36-a8e1-4190-8e9f-e5a4251360ce)

Sessions at Crosstrain Fight Club, Sainik Farm; At-home classes across New Delhi

Typically ₹800-2,000 per session (estimate)

- [Video: This is what I mean by practical self-defense. Here, I'm showing a standing armbar against a wall, a common scenario in a real confrontation. It's not about fancy moves, it's about using leverage to control the situation and create an escape.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/26d9e6ec-0b7c-4fca-8a05-633ed6b5bf60)
- [Video: I offer at-home self-defense training for kids. In this session, we are working on ground control and escapes. My goal is to make your child confident and capable, teaching them real skills in a safe, familiar environment.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/5603c924-44f3-4a2c-83c1-95162f76b29f)
- [Video: A good defense is the best offense. This video breaks down a counter to a single leg takedown, turning your opponent's attack into a key lock submission or a dominant side control position for you. We drill these basics until they are instinct.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/e31b8d36-a8e1-4190-8e9f-e5a4251360ce)
- [Video: This is a typical No-Gi grappling session, focusing on defending a single leg takedown and transitioning straight into an armbar. Without the Gi, the fight is faster and relies purely on body mechanics and control.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/be1d188a-5777-468f-8939-d01cfeeae803)
- [Video: People always ask about street fights versus MMA. They are not the same. A street fight has no rules, no referee, and often involves multiple opponents or weapons. My training prepares you for that reality, not for a sport.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/96dc0605-9493-490b-9b81-ee2124b5f9a4)
- [Video: When training with the Gi, the uniform itself becomes a weapon. Here, we are drilling a sweep to reverse the position, followed by an immediate armbar using the opponent's lapel and sleeve for control.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/1daef23d-306b-40b6-845f-5233f166851c)
- ![Being a certified referee for organizations like AJP gives me a deep understanding of the sport from all angles. Here I am officiating a youth grappling match. This experience helps me train my students with a complete perspective.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/22bf98d5-bbe9-41ce-bbe3-7f5fa0183f2b)
- ![This is what a good training session looks like. After working on MMA and BJJ fundamentals, there's a sense of accomplishment. I provide personalized one-on-one coaching to help you or your kids build real skill and discipline.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/8c70a165-6711-4b6d-a9a9-eee7cd848bb9)

- ![This is the result of focusing on strength, not just pump. A strong back built with heavy squats and deadlifts is the engine for any grappler or MMA fighter.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/fd6cf37d-4396-483c-b57e-06d9248c05ce)
- [Video: The squat is a non-negotiable exercise in my programs. Here you can see a demonstration of a heavy barbell squat, a core movement for developing lower body power and stability.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/b5c889d3-3b5c-4802-89ff-810949119c74)
- ![This is my core belief. "Strength Training se tagde banoge, single body part wale workout se nahi." Real strength translates to performance, a temporary pump does not.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/551c591f-6f60-4495-ae9a-5d265512153c)

### My story

Main Gaurav hoon, MMA fighter and BJJ player. Bachpan se martial arts karta aa raha hoon. National aur State grappling jeeta hai, ASJJF gold, ADCC silver bhi. Crosstrain Fight Club mere liye gym nahi, family hai. Pehle mujhe striking sab kuch lagta tha, phir BJJ coach ne ground pe ragdoll bana diya. Tab se BJJ hi best hai mere liye. Wrestling ya striking? Bhool jao, BJJ is life.

### My work

- **What I teach**: Personalized MMA coaching, BJJ, grappling, strength training for fighters, and kids self-defense classes.
- **My training style**: No ego, lots of competition, learn by tapping. Experience matters, not just technique.
- **Strength first**: Lift heavy, train for real strength. Pump routines waste time. Tagda banna hai toh heavy uthao.
- **Simple eating**: No fancy diets. Intermittent fasting for athletes is what actually works for me.
- **Home workouts**: No gym? Koi dikkat nahi. BJJ home workouts, running, skipping, pushups, pullups—sab kuch kar sakte ho.
