Opened by 3 Time Canadian Karate Champion, Rick Joslin in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada it has become one of Canada's most established martial arts schools. Rick was one of the first Full Contact Karate (Kickboxing) Fighters in Canada and his undefeated kickboxing team was a powerful force back in the 1970's.
I've been training in martial arts since the age of 5 and the sport has provided me with so many great things during my lifetime. As an instructor I find it extremely rewarding to see the young students that train at Joslin's Mixed Martial arts enjoy many of the same benefits that martial arts has given me.
Come experience the Best Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu program in Hamilton and train in a safe, motivating and warm atmosphere. Our head instructor Jeff Joslin was the first Canadian in history to win Gold at the Pan/American BJJ championships and the first Canadian to be awarded his Black Belt from the Alliance BJJ Team founder/BJJ Master Romero "Jacare" Cavalcanti.
Our striking classes will provide you with wide range of striking skills that will keep you safe while you're up there. You'll learn punches, kicks, knees, elbow strikes as well as countless combinations, counters and defenses. All striking classes are action packed from start to finish and will provide you with a awesome cardio workout!
Looking to learn the total package of ground fighting skills, striking skills and takedowns?. You'll learn how to stay safe while on your back, apply effective ground & pound techniques, work while up against a wall/cage, mix striking and take downs together and much more.

As a Mixed Martial Arts Program Members you'll get unlimited access to all of our Striking, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Sparring classes so that you'll be able to develop a well rounded skill set and truly have the confidence that your able to defend yourself in a realistic self-defense situation.The variety MMA training offers definitely keep things exciting and fresh as you'll be learning new things each time you attend the class.

Absolutely phenomenal gym. You will learn more in one year here than you would in two years at most other gyms. Jeff and the entire Joslin’s Team are a great bunch, very supportive learning and training environment. Jeff is a natural teacher who puts a lot of planning into each class. The level of detail and expertise he puts into his classes is… very hard to find elsewhere. The number of talented, hard working, and respectful training partners at Team Joslin’s is also very hard to find elsewhere. I spent three years at Joslin’s MMA and had to move for work. It has been

I can’t recommend Joslins enough! Whether you’re looking to get in better shape, learn something new, or compete at the highest level, Jeff is one of the greatest coaches I have ever had the pleasure to learn from. From the moment I stepped in the doors, everyone has been beyond welcoming and all the instructors truly want to see you succeed. I consider Joslins my second family; my training partners my brothers and sisters. This is a testament to the environment that Jeff fosters within the club. Come try a free week and you’ll be hooked!

There are many great (and no so great) MMA clubs out there. But this much I know from almost 3 years of experience: Joslin's combines (1) a superb training program, (2) VERY approachable, patient, and friendly instructors, (3) a genuinely welcoming and non-intimidating atmosphere, and (4) a long list of students of all ages and backgrounds who… are just as eager as you to learn proper MMA skills at their own pace, under the caring guidance of true professionals. There are NO egos here, just healthy camaraderie, lots of laughs, and unparalleled workouts that will make you feel so proud of
