Competition-size training areas kept clean and match-ready.
The first gym anywhere to install one — train wall wrestling the way it's fought.
Modern competition grappling scenarios you can't replicate on flat mats.
A full striking line for MMA, kickboxing, and conditioning.
Top-of-the-line equipment in a dedicated performance training room.
Division 1-level fundamentals — takedowns, standing control, and wall wrestling on our UFC BJJ bowl wall and CJI angled wall, coached by a national-champion pedigree.
Complete mixed martial arts — striking, wrestling, and grappling blended, with cage-wall work the way it's actually fought.
Strength training and conditioning built specifically for combat — structured programming in our elite performance room to forge the engine behind your technique.

Few coaches anywhere carry a grappling résumé like Ian Daube's: Division I wrestler. California State Champion. Freestyle and Greco-Roman All-American. Judo National Champion and USA Judo Team member. Two-time IBJJF No-Gi World Champion. A 10th Planet brown belt and MMA veteran with more than 26 years in combat sports.
That range is what sets his students apart. Wrestling, judo, jiu-jitsu, and MMA each solve the fight differently — Ian has competed at an elite level in all of them, and he distills that depth into coaching that transforms your takedowns, pressure, balance, and top control into a complete no-gi game.
Every class at American Strength and Combat is built on that world-championship standard. First day or fight camp — you'll be coached like a champion and made dangerous on your feet.
