I have always had a passion for Martial Arts and from a young age I took up boxing and kickboxing. I started my MMA journey age 19 and joined Intensity MMA in 2023.
I am now an active MMA fighter for the gym and also a Junior and Youth coach which allows me to share the knowledge that I am learning day to day to the next generation.
Mikey Feelan
BJJ Coach
I have been involved with jiu-jitsu since 2002 holding the ranking of 1st degree Black Belt. I have also competed in MMA and Thai Boxing but nothing speaks to me like Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu does. The ability to slow down another human being is a terrifying super power that I love to share.
