This past weekend the number one ranked UFC strawweight contender, Claudia Gadelha held a grand opening for her new gym, Claudia Gadelha’s MMA & BJJ Academy, in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania.
Gadelha, along with A.J. Hiller, owner of MMA Signatures, partnered together after working closely with one another at the MMA Classic Fan Expo, last fall.

DAMO will be instructed by Terry Devine, a military Veteran with more than 20-years experience in the arts of Krav Maga, , Kung Fu, Muay Thai, Karate and other real world survival tactics and techniques.
Boxing instruction is provided by Danny Sandoz, who has experience in Golden Gloves and trying out for the U.S. Olympic team.
