This year's event will be an OUTDOOR martial arts festival that will blow your mind! A completely original concept based off of last year's GrappleFest event. It will come on the weekend following the week-long Combat College training camp by Huss Hybrid Combat College.

Finish off the week with a full day of competition. For details contact us.

Non-competitors are welcome too! It is a lot of fun to watch, plus we could use our own cheerleading section. We are out to show that Martial Arts are something the whole family can enjoy. There will be something for everyone!
This year's GrappleFest will feature a wide variety of martial arts competitions for ALL conceivable forms of Grappling: Submission Grappling, Ju-Jitsu, Folkstyle Wrestling, Greco-Roman Wrestling, Judo, Scottish Highland Wrestling, Sumo, Backhold Wrestling, Sambo, etc. There will also be something for those who prefer striking!
