All-Round Fighting is a friendly and inclusive society where you can learn new techniques, make lasting friendships, and challenge yourself both physically and mentally. Whether you're completely new to martial arts or have experience, we offer training that caters to all skill levels. Focussing on the practicality of techniques in live scenarios, and pushing our members to be competent in various disciplines to develop a versatile skillset. We approach training with an emphasis on the budo aspect, which you can think of as ‘discipline and respect’.
The club creates a supportive atmosphere where everyone feels welcome and motivated. Along with the training aspect, we have joint socials with other combat sport societies, organize watch-a longs for big fights and have Wing Wednesdays after our open mat training. We are also proud to be the creators of SMMART, the largest rookie MMA tournament in Europe, which takes place every March. For those wanting to compete this is a fantastic opportunity to test your skills against universities from all over Scotland.
If you're looking to improve your fitness, develop self-defence skills, or work towards competing, this is the perfect place to start your journey.
