Sambo

Sambo is one of the more recent disciplines of Mixed Martial Arts and contains some of
the most effective techniques of all Mixed Martial Arts disciplines. Sambo combines
many different skills and incorporates a variety of moves into three main areas; ground
control skills, takedowns, and leg locks.

Sambo is a combination of Judo, Jiu Jitsu, and a number of wrestling styles. This
discipline of MMA has a strong focus on groundwork and combat strengthening. It is a
great discipline to learn as it gives you foundations for other Mixed Martial Arts and Alta
training. Core skills and techniques of Sambo build strong bases for other combat
sports and give you overall strength and fitness. Sambo is a great way to get involved in
Alta MMA, on a beginner and advanced level.

Sambo facilitates a smooth transition between disciplines, as it lays down the basic
skills for many other Mixed Martial Arts and Alta training. One notable aspect of Sambo
is the uniform, which has a Gi Jacket that is similar to Judo and Jiu-Jitsu, but
competitors then only wear shorts underneath the top.
