MMA
ROAR MMA runs structured MMA classes in Lahore for complete beginners through to competitors. Mixed martial arts brings striking, clinch, wrestling and ground grappling into one connected game, and our MMA program at Canal Gardens teaches each range on its own before putting them together — so you build real, usable skill instead of just getting tired. Every session runs under federation-certified head coach Azhar Hussain.
What You'll Learn
- Stand-up striking: boxing hands, kicks, knees and elbows
- Clinch work, takedowns and takedown defense
- Ground control, positions, submissions and escapes
- Transitions between striking, wrestling and the ground
- Fight IQ, pacing, and controlled sparring as you progress
Who It's For
Adults and teens who want the full combat-sports skill set — whether your goal is self-defense, serious fitness, or stepping into amateur competition. No experience needed to start.
Beginners start with fundamentals and controlled drilling. You learn to move, defend, and stay calm before any hard contact — there is no being thrown into sparring on day one. As your base develops, we layer in live rounds at a pace that matches your level, so progress feels challenging but safe.
MMA is also one of the most complete conditioning tools there is. A single 90-minute session trains power, endurance, mobility and mental toughness at once. Many members join purely to get fit and leaner, and stay for the skills.
For those who want to test themselves, Coach Azhar builds competition-focused camps with sparring, fight IQ and a full preparation plan — backed by 15 years of coaching and professional stunt-fighting experience.

MMA FAQ
Do I need any experience to join MMA classes?
No. Most members start with zero background. You begin with fundamentals and controlled drills, and only move to live rounds once you're ready.
Will I have to spar straight away?
Never on your first day. Sparring is introduced gradually, with control, once your defense and fundamentals are solid.
How long are MMA sessions and when do they run?
MMA sessions are about 90 minutes, Monday to Friday. Message us on WhatsApp for the exact times that suit your level.
Is MMA good for fitness and weight loss?
Yes — it's a full-body workout that builds strength, endurance and coordination while burning serious calories.
How much do MMA classes cost in Lahore?
The MMA program is PKR 10,000 per month. Private one-on-one MMA coaching is also available — see our pricing page.
