Kickboxing and MMA Training in Bengaluru
A look at the energy of our community, from beginner classes to competitive training, across our HSR Layout and Hosa Road studios.
This is what our community looks like. I believe in creating a space where everyone, from young kids to adults, can train together and learn from each other as a team at our HSR Layout location.
I start training kids from 4 years old. This video shows a typical pad work session where we focus on basic boxing combinations, movement, and most importantly, having fun while learning discipline.
Here is a look at the intensity of our kickboxing pad work drills at the Hosa Road academy. We focus on building cardio and power by practicing continuous striking combinations in a high energy group setting.
I'm incredibly proud of my students. Here is one of our fighters after winning medals at the 3rd State Level Kickboxing Championship. We don't just train, we build champions.
Many women join my classes to get stronger, build confidence, and learn practical self defense. Here is a group of our dedicated female fighters who prove that strength has no gender.
Fighting is a chess match. This video shows a technical sparring session where students practice their timing, defense, and counter attacks in a controlled and safe environment.
The heavy bag is a fundamental tool for developing power and stamina. Here's a student at our HSR Layout gym working on his boxing combinations and footwork.
If you prefer focused, one on one attention, I offer personal training sessions. We can work at your pace, whether it's in the gym or an outdoor setting, to meet your specific fitness or fighting goals.
About Featured
Training at our HSR Layout and Hosa Road studios is about real progress, not luxury. We run a non-AC environment with heavy bag work, pad drills, and technical sparring, focusing on Dutch Kickboxing and Philly Shell defense. Whether you are 4 or 40, you will be training in a space where students help each other level up.
We do not do 'fancy' here. We do fight science. My approach to martial arts is grounded in the idea that fighting is like chess—it requires patience, strategy, and mental clarity rather than just throwing wild punches. Whether you are coming in to shed weight, learn self-defense, or sharpen your competitive edge, the focus remains on the fundamentals.
At Sai MMA Academy, we keep things practical. Our HSR Layout and Hosa Road (Electronic City) locations feature a dedicated non-AC setup with industrial-grade flooring, ensuring you get the authentic feel of a fighter's gym. We emphasize Dutch Kickboxing and the Philly Shell defensive style, giving you a technical foundation that works in real-world scenarios.
Our community is as diverse as it gets. You will find 4-year-olds building coordination alongside adults preparing for state-level championships. We take pride in our women-led fitness and self-defense classes, where the focus is on building genuine strength and confidence. If you prefer undivided attention, I also conduct one-on-one sessions that zero in on micro-corrections for your stance and striking mechanics.
Come by for a trial class. You do not need to be fit to start, and you certainly do not need to know how to fight. We are here to help you get better than you were yesterday.
