Kickboxing refers to the martial art sport of kicking and punching. Kickboxing is a standing sport and does not allow continuation of the fight once a combatant has reached the ground, although certain styles of Muay Thai make exceptions to this rule. 

IFA Kickboxing is a well formed system with its basis from the Ryu Bujitsu Kai system and the Eddine kickboxing system, creating a freestyle system of Kickboxing adaptable to all situations. 
Whether you are training for mma, boxing or kickboxing career or simply to get fit, IFA kickboxing is tailored for everyone. 

What makes IFA's system of freestyle kickboxing so unique is that we incorperate many tools from other styles of martial arts (back fists, spinning back fists, axe kicks, spinning back and wheel kicks, just to name a few)

At IFA Martial Arts, we have a six step kickboxing system where students grade through our program to ensure that students learn a complete freestyle kickboxing. Starting with basic boxing and boxing defence, then applying low kicks and defence all the way through to high kicks and the more eccentric  techniques

Starting off on the fundamental elements for boxing with footwork, basic strikes, defence and  countering. Students must demonstrate the fundamental of boxing in sparring to move to the next level of the IFA freestyle kickboxing program

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a martial art and combat sport that focuses on grappling and especially ground fighting. ...A predominantly ground oriented martial art which was originally derived from traditional Japanese Jiu-Jitsu and Judo. In the past decade, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu's popularity has spread due to its success in mixed martial arts contests. ...

In the mid-1920's, Carlos Gracie opened the Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Academy in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. He taught the skills he learned from Japanese Judo master Esai Maeda. The skills were later modified to use less strength and to be more effective against larger opponents. ...A grappling art first developed in Brazil in the early 1900's with a heavy emphasis placed on groundwork and submissions.

IFA Martial Arts is an affiliate school of Team LEAD BJJ Australia, under the expert guidance, mentoring and instruction of Lead BJJ Australian President, Professor Daniel "Jacare" Almeida.

We have a great team of instructors with Professor Daniel "Jacare" Almeida and with the instruction of Professor Richard Awad (black belt) and Costa D'Adonna (black belt). IFA Martial Arts  has very high level of Jiu Jitsu.

MIXED MARTIAL ARTS

MMA is Mixed Martial Arts it’s a full-contact combat sport that allows both striking and grappling, using techniques from other combat sports and martial arts. The first documented use of the term mixed martial arts was in a review of UFC Ultimate Fighting Championship by television critic Howard Rosenberg in 1993.

Originally promoted as a competition to find the most effective martial arts for real unarmed combat, competitors from different fighting styles were pitted against one another in contests with relatively few rules. Later, individual fighters employed multiple martial arts into their style. MMA promoters were pressured to adopt additional rules to increase competitors' safety, to comply with sport regulations and to broaden mainstream acceptance of the sport.

Following these changes, the sport has seen increased popularity with a pay per-view business that rivals boxing and professional wrestling.

At IFA Martial arts, we work through all the necessary combat sports to put together an MMA program that is suitable for all students.

Students must train and both strike and grappling arts to be a part of the MMA program
