Thread: Martial arts/Boxing/MMA gyms in Panama

Wow, it seems that I'm full of questions (and boredom, booze and a few other things) tonight. My last question for the night is, is ther any sort of combat sports gym in Panama City? I was an (albeit very) amateur MMA fighter as a hobby in the states. Mainly Muay Thai and freestyle wrestling but I'll take what I can get here in Panama. Does such a thing exist? Really just a gym with a few knowledgable people would cut it, but the more advanced and technical the better. Any disciplines... Anyone?

EDIT: Nevermind. I found some.

Well heck. I did find this if anyone else is interested in this sort of thing other than myself:

Only one interests me, but then again it's one more than I had this morning.

And more... this is more my speed. I guess it just took a little work on my part.

How much a month for the jiu-jitsu? I would not mind trying that myself.... I could not find it on the website...

No clue. I'm actually in Houston right now. I'll run by when I get back.

Just thought everyone would like to know that Eskrima - Arnis has finally made it to Panama. Check out the website Artes Marciales. If you don't know what Arnis is, look at the videos on the website. Basically, much of the combat scenes you see in action movies like The Bourne Identity trilogy and many other movies are choreographe by Arnis masters.

thanks for sharing. check it again, http://www.yellowpages-caribbean.com.../Martial+arts/.
I'm facing some problem in it.

I'm in the MMA/UFC business and have heard that the sport has grown a lot in Panama. I'll be there in 2 weeks and will be shooting a documentary and talking to fighters, and to train. I'll put some info in here when I get back.
