Silver Spring's young professionals and serious beginners train at Rising Tide MoCo MMA — every adult martial art under one roof, a straight shot up Georgia Avenue.
Silver Spring sends us some of our most driven adult members — young professionals who want training with substance, not another boutique fitness fad. Rising Tide MoCo MMA is a straight shot up Georgia Avenue, and it's one academy with every adult discipline: Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, wrestling, boxing, kickboxing, and MMA.
The appeal is simple: real skill, real conditioning, real community. Our adult classes follow structured curricula taught by experienced coaches, with live training introduced when you're ready. You'll get in the best shape of your life as a side effect of learning something that actually matters.
Most Silver Spring members train in the evenings — the 6:30–9 PM block fits a downtown workday — though the 6:30 AM crew has its share of Silver Spring diehards too. If you've been circling the idea of martial arts, stop circling: your first class is free, and you can sample every program before picking your path.
