About Us

Founder and Head Coach

Amin has been studying and training martial arts for many years. His love for martial arts started as a child, all the way back in the nineties and he has been practicing and fighting competitively ever since. Inspired as a youth by taekwondo, kung fu, boxing and his brother’s competitive taekwondo successes, Amin’s martial arts career truly began when he started training muay thai. He is supremely qualified as an MMA coach due to his excellent grounding in a wide range of disciplines including taekwondo, boxing, muay thai, wrestling, brazilian jiu jitsu and karate.

Over the years he has taught both children and adults at many martial arts and fitness institutions in the Middle East, and this wide experience range gives him a lot of experience which he is keen to impart on his students.

A competitive fighter himself, Amin has achieved notable victories in taekwondo, and more recently has fought competitively in muay thai, MMA, boxing and kickboxing. He is looking forward to continuing to learn and achieve greater heights as a coach and pads holder. Amin has now achieved his lifelong ambition to open his very own gym here in Cambridge!

One of the standout areas of development for Coach Amin is his work as a pads trainer. He was the official coach of MMA fighter Amit Thapa for his SFL fights and entrance to the UFC, and also put Mounir “Sniper” Lazzez through his paces on the way to achieving victory in Desert Force, Phoenix 4 and Brave 16 and UFC . Amin has also supported MMA fighters Mehdi Ramazani and Anas Siraj Mounir in preparing for their fights.
