I Started training at Extreme MMA about 2 years ago. I was 27 years old 5ft. 9in and 280 lbs then. I was introduced to Sensei Mike Cardoso and his Extreme MMA through a mutual friend. Being THAT overweight and up there in age, as you can imagine, I was very intimidated/embarrased by any type of Martial Arts Training, group ""fitness"" class or Gym. Today I'm 194lbs, still losing weight and getting even more fit by the day. Thanks to Mike and his Team, I not only get to have the healthy body and confidence that any 30 year old dreams of, But I've discovered the Art of Jiu-Jitsu. Something that I will practice for a long, long time.
