What r/MMA_Academy Is For
This community is for MMA and martial arts enthusiasts who want to talk mainly about technique. People discuss combat techniques including boxing, Muay Thai, wrestling, jiu jitsu, training questions, and defense. All skill levels are welcome and you can share videos of your fights. The community expects you to consult your coach or trainer before taking any advice you read here.
Rules That Matter Before Posting
The rule named "Not about MMA training" means your post must tie directly to training or technique. The rule named "Spam" covers repeated submissions, off topic posts, and trying to sell products or services. The rule named "AI Slop" bans all AI generated content. The rule named "Promo posts" allows only one promo post per person or product. The rule named "Asking for healthcare/injury recover" removes any medical questions. The rule named "Illegal or dangerous conent" removes advice that breaks reddit rules of conduct.
What To Post
A good post for a founder doing respectful Reddit marketing here is one that shares genuine MMA training insight. You could break down a technique, answer a common training question, or discuss defense strategies. If you have a product, you get one promo post, but the community responds better to useful technique discussion than to promotion. Keep your focus on adding value to the training conversation.
What To Avoid
Your post will be removed if it is not about MMA training or technique. You will also be removed for illegal or dangerous advice, spam, AI content, or medical questions. Do not make repeated submissions or try to sell products and services outside of your one allowed promo post. Do not post AI generated posts, graphics, or videos. Do not ask for healthcare or injury recovery advice.
