# UMAA Hayes - Business Description
UMAA Hayes is a martial arts academy that uniquely blends modern Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) training with the traditional principles of Bushido. Located in Hayes, the academy serves individuals of all fitness levels—from complete beginners to experienced martial artists—who seek both physical conditioning and mental discipline.
The academy distinguishes itself through its multi-disciplinary approach, drawing on combined knowledge from eight different combat systems including Kyokushin Karate, Muay Thai, and Kickboxing. Rather than teaching a single martial art, UMAA functions as a comprehensive academy for serious martial arts study. Classes incorporate rigorous full-contact sparring, high-intensity interval training, and body conditioning, balanced with mental development through structured practice, isometric holds, and yoga-based stretching.
What sets UMAA apart is its credentials and instructor quality: five Black Belt instructors lead classes, all holding First Aid qualifications and DBS clearance. The academy has produced championship-title holders in K1, Kumite, and Boxing, whilst maintaining a student body exceeding 100 members. Their commitment extends beyond fitness—they've delivered self-defence and inclusive fitness programmes for local authorities, demonstrating their community impact.
UMAA's philosophy centres on empowering individuals to reach their full potential by developing physical strength alongside mental resilience, making it ideal for those seeking authentic martial arts training delivered with professional standards and traditional values.
