Combat Sambo
Russia's Complete Grappling System
Explosive throws, brutal leg locks, and relentless top control, trained under the only American to win a World Sambo Championship.
The Program
Throw, Control, Submit
Sambo is the Russian art of combat grappling, a system built on explosive throws, punishing leg locks, and suffocating top control. It's one of the most effective grappling styles on earth, and it translates directly to MMA and self-defense.
At Jackpot MMA 777 you'll learn Sambo from a source that simply doesn't exist anywhere else in the country. The only American ever to win a World Sambo Championship. Whether you grapple for sport, fitness, or the cage, this is where you build a game nobody expects.
Coached by Jesse Smith, the only American World Sambo Champion and a 3x Sambo National Champion.
