MMA for teens?
Not that I have heard of, but not internationally anyways.


In order to do that, your local area of living must support and promote it, which in most places dont. But for sure MMA is also influenced by Martial Arts which is taught all over the world.





So you can start off in a dojo, and check to compete in competitions.





Try www.mma.com and www.usgrappling.com





Thanks.


Thanks for your time.

Reply:KOTC just signed a 15 yr old. Stupid on their part though. If that kid gets a serious injury from a 20 something yr old fighter the anti-mma people will have a field day.
Reply:I guess tournaments are supposed to be like MMA. But i think the reason they don't have MMA for teens is because, no one wants to risk having a hurt teen during a match in the league. It's probably bad for publicity.
Reply:I haven't heard of any so far, but I know a lot of teens who go to tournaments and smokers. Just the other day, my friend fought a 13 year old boy who was trained very well. If you like, I can tell you when they are and you can practice until you get 18+.
Reply:In some states it's legal for teens to fight in amateur MMA fights.

Reply:Not that I know of. I mean you can comptere in BJJ matches. Go to http://www.usgrappling.us, their having a Juniors competition.
Reply:No, you have to be atleast 18 years old, otherwise you are more likely to have to hunt down small events that is sponsered by local people. In which case your parents will have to be there to sign you in. Your best bet is to compete in specific arts, like just boxing or brazilian jiu jitsu or wrestling and so on. They do have competitions for teens and kids in those, and you will gain a lot of experience until you can actually compete in MMA.
