New York, NY, Sept. 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mixed Martial Arts Group Limited (NYSE American: MMA) (“MMA” or the “Company”), doing business as MMA.INC, today announced the continued expansion of TrainAlta within UFC GYM, with pre-sale now open at 27 UFC GYM locations for the next cycle of TrainAlta’s flagship Warrior Training Program. The cycle is scheduled to commence November 9, 2026 and, based on the current location list, is expected to be the largest launch in the partnership’s history.
TrainAlta Expands Within UFC GYM
TrainAlta is MMA.INC’s consumer-facing martial arts training platform and the home of one of the most established global pathways into MMA for beginners. Its flagship Warrior Training Program has introduced thousands of participants to the sport through programs delivered across North America, Europe, Australia and New Zealand, including at iconic gyms such as SBG Ireland, City Kickboxing, DC Wrestling Academy and Xtreme Couture. That global community is also showcased on Instagram at @TrainAlta where participant stories, program features and widely shared training and Fight Night moments bring the energy and personal impact of the TrainAlta experience to life.
The program’s proven 20 week, 100 lesson syllabus, converts interest in MMA into structured participation through progressive, coach led training across multiple martial arts disciplines. It is designed for beginners as well as experienced participants, with eligible graduates offered the opportunity to compete in a fully sanctioned amateur MMA bout in front of a live crowd at an “Alta Finale Fight Night”.
The UFC GYM rollout extends this established model across a major international gym network, while trainalta.com provides a central destination where prospective participants can learn about the program, find participating locations and secure their place.
Largest TrainAlta Program Cycle Now in Pre-Sale
The planned November footprint spans over 27 UFC GYM locations across seven states. It adds Hendersonville, Tennessee, together with three Chicago area locations in Morgan Park, Wrigleyville and Naperville.
In California, the pre-sale footprint expands with the addition of Anaheim and Point Loma. The pre-sale location list remains subject to change before the launch date.
Current Cycle Underway Across 21 Locations
The current TrainAlta Warrior Training Program cycle is underway at 21 UFC GYM locations across New York, Florida, Hawaii, Washington and California, making it the largest cycle launched to date. Based on the current pre-sale footprint, the planned November cycle would increase the number of locations in a single launch cycle by approximately 29%.
Finale Fight Nights Support Grassroots Combat Sports
Eligible participants who complete the current cycle are expected to have the opportunity to compete at a finale Fight Night, with an event planned in each participating state.
The events are planned to be staged by TrainAlta and UFC GYM, either directly or with local promotion partners. The format gives participants a defined training goal while directing program activity and investment toward grassroots promotions and the coaches, officials and local combat sports communities that support them.
Nick Langton, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of MMA.INC, said:
Our mission is to turn hundreds of millions of MMA fans around the world into active participants. Watching the sport can inspire people, but stepping onto the mats can change a life. It demands discipline, builds confidence and connects people to a community in a way few other experiences can.
“The Warrior Training Program is the flagship expression of that mission. It gives people, many of whom are entering a combat sports gym for the first time, a globally proven 20 week, 100 lesson journey and the opportunity to test themselves at a finale Fight Night. Our current 21 location UFC GYM cycle is the largest we have launched to date, and pre-sale is now open at 27 locations for November.
“Every additional location creates another entry point into MMA. As the physical footprint grows, trainalta.com provides the front door through which fans can understand the program, find a participating gym and make the commitment to begin. The finale Fight Nights then give eligible participants a defining goal while directing investment toward the local promoters, coaches, officials and emerging talent who sustain the sport at its grassroots.”
