Combat Sambo Classes in London – Grappling & Striking Combined

What is Combat Sambo?

Sambo is a Russian martial art that combines judo-style throws, wrestling takedowns, and striking. Originally developed for military self-defence, it’s now one of the most effective combat systems for real fighting and MMA.

At London Fight Factory, we teach Combat Sambo — a dynamic mix of grappling, submissions, punches, kicks, and throws. It’s tough, fast, and extremely practical.

Who Should Train Sambo?

  • 🥇 MMA athletes combining striking with grappling
  • 🥋 Grapplers looking to learn dynamic takedowns
  • 🛡️ Anyone interested in real-world self-defence
  • 🔥 Intermediate/advanced students seeking hard, high-level training

 

If you’re searching for sambo near me or want to combine wrestling and striking in one discipline — this is it.
