What others are saying:
I have lost almost 30 pounds since I started training at Absolute MMA a year and a half ago. It is the one of the best things I have ever done in my life as it has given me new strength, confidence and a new healthier outlook on life. My kids (age 6, 8 and 10) train as well and they are more physically fit then they have ever been. Training at Absolute is a life changer and can't imagine living without it!
Utah's Best MMA Gym
Absolute MMA is one of Utah's best MMA gyms and trains students and athletes of all levels including beginners, hobbyists, fitness enthusiasts, amateur and professional Mixed Martial Arts fighters as well as many others.. Often referred to as the "Little gym with big talent". What makes us different from other MMA gyms? Our well-balanced program! Our MMA training workouts and MMA strength training is second to none. We use the experience and education of the martial arts to teach our MMA programs as a means of physical exercise, self defense, recreation and personal development. We teach beginning to advanced classes in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Kickboxing, Muay Thai, Boxing, Wrestling, and MMA Training Workouts. Owner and Head Trainer Rob Handley is one of Utah's leading Martial Arts instructors, with over 20 years of experience in many disciplines of martial arts, MMA strength training, instruction, and coaching. Rob has coached MMA athletes in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) and World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC) and many other MMA and grappling events.

We are centrally located in the Salt Lake Valley, just a few minutes off of I-15 and I-215 at 7200 South, a block west of Gardner Village on 7800 South.

The Result
The result is a new generation of well-rounded Martial Artists who not only challenge themselves physically and mentally, but who also discover the connection of the body, the mind, and life.
