Behind the Scenes: An MMA Coach’s Daily Grind in Guwahati
Step into the gym with me. These vlogs are not highlights—they are the unfiltered reality of running Dojang, prepping fighters for the cage, and the grit behind every session in Assam.
This vlog takes you on the road with me to an MMA seminar in Bongaigaon. I show how we teach technical drills like back control, run sparring sessions, and even help general fitness clients, spreading the art of MMA across the region.
I discuss the harsh reality of Indian MMA, where a top-ranked fighter gets little media attention until they reach the very top. This vlog shows our Muay Thai clinch work and the importance of having a strong team in your corner.
A raw look at the challenges of fight preparation. This vlog documents a stressful situation where my fighter missed weight due to a faulty official scale, showing the unpredictable nature of competition.
In this vlog, spoken in Assamese, I break down a typical training session focusing on boxing counters, takedowns, and endurance drills. It also highlights the importance of our post-workout stretching and recovery routines, featuring our team's recovery specialist.
For those who don't have access to an MMA gym, I explain how to start your journey by focusing on foundational arts like boxing, wrestling, and Wushu. This is my advice for building a solid base for a future in mixed martial arts.
A look inside the final days of a fight camp for a major event. This vlog shows the intensity of a professional fighter's weight cut and a glimpse of our gym's anniversary celebration.
Even a flood won't stop our training. This vlog shows a morning of Muay Thai sparring before the city's traffic and weather made it impossible to get to the gym, highlighting the dedication required to keep going.
About The Coach's Vlogs: A Day in the Life
In these vlogs, I don't sugarcoat the process. You will see exactly how we handle high-stress weight cuts, the reality of teaching boxing counters in a non-AC facility, and why our recovery specialist is just as critical as our striking drills. This is a real, transparent look at what it takes to build a competitive fighter from the ground up, whether we are training in Guwahati or Bongaigaon.
Building a team is not just about the big wins. It is about showing up when the weather stops traffic, pushing through the fatigue of a double session, and being honest when a fighter misses weight due to a faulty scale. My vlogs capture the essence of 'Team Dojang' because I want you to know exactly what you are signing up for.
The Reality of Our Training
We do not believe in easy routes. In my vlog episodes, I break down technical moves—like back control, clinching for Muay Thai, or boxing counters—so you understand the 'why' behind the drill. Whether you are a fitness client looking to lose weight or an aspiring fighter aiming for the cage, you will see the same intensity applied to every student.
Why We Document Everything
Most gyms show you the shiny result. We show you the floor, the sweat, the struggle, and the community. By sharing our seminars in Bongaigaon, our fight camps, and even the days where the city floods and training becomes a challenge, I want to demystify MMA. It is not just a violent sport; it is a discipline that impacts your mental health, stamina, and resilience.
The Dojang Philosophy
My goal is to put Indian fighters on the map. If you are watching these videos, you are seeing the foundation. From our dedicated weight loss programs to the intense fight camps for our pro team, the philosophy remains the same: failure is part of the growth. If you are ready for a community that actually cares about your progress and doesn't just treat you like a membership number, you belong in our corner.
