English-Speaking Martial Arts in Barcelona
Boxing, MMA, kickboxing, Muay Thai and BJJ โ a brand new Keep Calm group, just getting started.
Worth knowing: This page covers martial arts broadly โ boxing, MMA, kickboxing, Muay Thai and BJJ โ under Keep Calm's single "Combat (Boxing/MMA)" group. It's brand new with no set schedule yet; join now to be among the first to know when sessions begin.
About Martial Arts with Keep Calm
Keep Calm is starting a martial arts community, covering boxing, MMA, kickboxing, Muay Thai and BJJ under one group rather than running a separate one for every discipline. It's brand new, so we'll be straightforward about that: there's no set schedule yet, and sessions haven't started running week to week.
What exists right now is the WhatsApp group itself and the intent to get people training together at gyms and training spaces across Barcelona. If you train already, or want to start, joining now means you'll be one of the first to hear when something is organised, and you'll have a say in what gets set up.
This isn't a beginners-only or experts-only space โ the plan is for it to work for anyone from complete beginners curious about boxing or BJJ to people who already train regularly and want an English-speaking crowd to train alongside.
Why join

The group is just getting started โ join now and help shape what gets organised and when.
๐ฅ One group, five disciplines
Boxing, MMA, kickboxing, Muay Thai and BJJ all live in the same community rather than being split across separate groups.
๐๏ธ Gyms across Barcelona
Training is planned to happen at gyms and training spaces around the city, not one fixed venue.
