About MMAFFC — Coach Don Dees and the Team
Building confidence, discipline, and community in Clarksville since 2017.
Built on Real Progress
Coach Don Dees
Coach Don earned his Karate Black Belt in 2000, but he knew there was more to learn. That drive for real, pressure-tested technique led him to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. In 2019, he earned his BJJ Black Belt under Professor Matt Larsen.
He opened MMAFFC in 2017 because Clarksville needed a gym where regular people could learn legitimate martial arts without the ego. Whether you're jumping into Adult BJJ or looking for a place for your kids to build discipline, Don's focus is on making sure you actually understand the techniques.
Coach Kim
Coach Kim is the backbone of the gym's culture. She leads with patience and precision, playing a crucial role on the mats, especially in ensuring the Women's Only program and youth classes run smoothly. She helps make MMAFFC a place where anyone in Clarksville can feel comfortable stepping onto the mat.
