Hook, Clinch, Pluck & Throw!

Join us for a 4-day Mantis Grappling Camp!

  • 12 hours of skill building FOCused on Grappling — Throws, Trips, takedowns, and submissions from Standing to the ground.

  • Panel of black belt coaches. Get the tips and time you need to improve your Grappling art.

This is a family-style camp. That means — no ego, no drama. And…you are welcome to work at your own pace and ask questions at any time.

Take the next step in evolving your close range fighting skills inside the grapple:

  • Deep dive into the art of throws, trips, & takedowns.

  • Follow the upheaval with seamless transitions to your ground game.

  • Hone your Brazilian jiu-jitsu skills, applying your arsenal after the takedown, or recovering your guard and transitioning to sweeps and escapes after being tossed.

What’s unique about this camp versus the end of summer camp?

At this immersion camp the entire focus will be on your grappling skills standing and on the ground. Two pillars of fighting that demand this type of focus and attention. You will bring home not only techniques, but the experience and knowledge to integrate them into your art.
