About Us:
Fight Factory takes pride in providing a welcoming community that is made of strong and talented martial artists. Through grappling, we learn an art of self-defense without a focus on harming others. This focus on safety extends to our training environment. Students of all ages and skill levels will receive the same respect and discover balance between competition and camaraderie. Fight Factory values the white belt as much as we value the black belt.
Our History:
Fight Factory owner Rodrigo Cabral began martial arts training at five years old and has trained Jiu-Jitsu for almost 30 years. His passion for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu quickly turned into the goal of opening a gym and sharing his gift. Fight Factory in Austin wasn’t Rodrigo’s first school – in 2005 he had a successful gym with over 200 students in London. After 4 years, he was unable to renew his visa and returned home to Brazil momentarily. Then he moved to the United States of America, where he was able to open the doors of the new Fight Factory in October 2013 and continue living out his dream. What started as a six student school began to thrive and now has over 300 international students, including world champions.
