More than just a workout
There is something of the warrior in all of us. Here at Warrior Evolution MMA, in the South Loop of Chicago, we’re here to help everyone tap into that energy to push ourselves further, train harder, and grow. Our training goes beyond that of the physical aspect. We understand that not everyone is interested in stepping into a cage to fight in MMA. But that does not mean everyone is not a fighter. Everyone fights in their own way in everyday life. We use techniques from boxing, kickboxing, judo, wrestling, and jiujitsu as well as Bruce Lee’s philosophies of Jeet Kune Do to show people how to fight stress, frustration and negativity that may come up on a daily basis. We are all fighters. We are all warriors. Come in and see for yourself what you are capable of!
“Warrior Evolution is not just a martial arts academy or a gym. It’s slowly but surely becoming a home away from home, Warrior offers a top tier martial arts and fitness experience. It doesn’t matter what skill or fitness level you’re at, from day one the atmosphere is welcoming with a community of instructors and members that will support you every step of the way.”

THE ACADEMY
Our number one priority is to help people learn. Although we are a mixed martial arts (MMA) gym,our mission is to teach much more than the sport. We teach our students the philosophy of Jeet Kune Do (JKD) which is what Bruce Lee founded the sport on. These philosophies are applicable to the sport and to everyday life. We want to make sure everyone who walks out of our gym is stronger physically, mentally and emotionally than when they first came in!
MMA SPARRING
For those wanting to take their training to the next level, this is the perfect opportunity to do so! In these classes, students will put what they have learned to the test in a friendly, competitive environment. Each person is striving to make their fellow teammates better. No egos here, just camaraderie!
KIDS MMA
Mixed Martial Arts is a great way to teach kids discipline, improve their concentration, multitasking abilities, and overall behavior.
We have kids classes on Fridays and Saturdays.
CHAMPIONS
The training system taught at Warrior Evolution has produced winners and champions in local competitions. We’ve had students compete in MMA fights, kickboxing fights, and grappling tournaments in and around Chicago and have come out victorious. In one grappling tournament alone, our students took 1st, 2nd and 3rd place medals across multiple divisions!
Meet our trainers.
There has never been a time where I have felt embarrassed or shy to ask instructors or students questions.
