# The Fighting Arts Academy
The Fighting Arts Academy is a Mixed Martial Arts club based in Highams Park, East London, dedicated to making combat sports accessible to everyone. Rather than catering exclusively to aspiring professional fighters, they champion diversity and welcome people of all ages, genders, sizes and fitness levels—from complete beginners to seasoned competitors.
Their offering centres on two core disciplines: Muay Thai striking and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu grappling. Muay Thai combines punches, kicks, elbows, knees and clinch techniques to build strength, timing and mental sharpness, whilst BJJ teaches ground-based control, positioning and submission techniques designed to help smaller individuals overcome larger opponents through leverage and technique.
What sets The Fighting Arts Academy apart is their inclusive ethos and emphasis on outcomes beyond competition. They serve people seeking fitness, self-defence skills, life lessons and genuine community—not just cage fighters. Their welcoming approach acknowledges that joining a combat sports gym can feel intimidating, which they actively counter through supportive instruction and a diverse membership base united by shared passion.
Classes are booked through their proprietary MAAT app, streamlining the sign-up process. They currently offer a £10 discount on first classes using the code WELCOME2TFAA, emphasising their commitment to removing barriers to entry and converting curiosity into action.
