Free MMA is a tax-exempt organization in the US founded by mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter Jarred "Bear" Fiorda.[1][2] It offers underprivileged youth, low-income adults, and seniors to take advantage of the self-discipline and self-defense offered by martial arts training.
Jarred Fiorda founded Free MMA with his mother Michelle Fiorda in 2018, offering free martial arts, mixed martial arts and self-defense training.[3] In 2019, Free MMA was forced to closed for several weeks due to the "Valentine's Day Flooding" in the Coachella Valley.[4]
