Who We Are
The People's Gym
Praxis Submission Fighting is a combat sports gym organized by REAL. Our school aims to provide an accessible training environment working class people to learn how to defend themselves and their loved ones. We offer Combat Sambo, Submission Grappling, Women's Self-Defense, a free Community Open Mat and a free Kids Wrestling Program.
Everything in the gym goes back towards the community and REAL's educational and mutual aid programs. With our holistic curriculum not bound by any particular martial art dogma or rule-set and a materialist approach to coaching that keeps practice always alive and realistic, we are building capable, prepared, and strong communities.
