Located in Morjim, Goa, Mannar MMA Academy was officially founded in 2019, but its roots go back much further—to 2009, when Coach Satra began offering free martial arts classes on Morjim Beach. What started as friendly training sessions in MMA, Kickboxing, and Thai Boxing soon grew into a thriving community, attracting dedicated students, including many children eager to learn.

Through years of dedication, moving from home gyms to resort-based training spaces, Coach Satra and his academy have built a strong reputation in Goa’s martial arts scene. Mannar MMA Academy has trained multiple champions in Kickboxing and MMA, becoming a respected force in regional competitions.
