The highest level of Grappling and MMA in Tuscany! Coach Marco Santi has been an international MMA Athlete and in my opinion only those who have been fighting in a cage can teach at high levels. In the gym there are several high level Athletes that regularly participate in National and International Grappling and in MMA competitions.They also have excellent physical athletic training Coach! Best Gym hands down!

Usually when you want to find the perfect gym to invest yourself in, especially in something as complex as mixed martial arts, I would advise anyone to check out the gym in person. I wandered all around Florence to find the one that met my expectations and Dog eat Dog exceeded them. A professional staff with a rich combat history, fully equipped with the latest gear and techniques. Providing a great mental atmosphere to welcome competition in your best physical shape.

Great environment in Florence, I have been training here for years, best experience i ever had in combat sport, Coaches are amazing with hi-tech workout and head coach Marco Santi is totally available. It can be reached easily with bus line, car or train, very good place.

Trained at Dog Eat Dog for six weeks in 2023. Enjoyed every minute of it. Had a lot of highly valuable one-on-one time as it was approaching summer and things were quiet — Marco's an awesome coach! He has vast knowledge in both striking and grappling, attention to detail, and patience. The quality of the people says a lot. They're competitors who go hard on each other but go easy on newbies (thank you). Really one of the best gyms I've trained at. Top notch facilities too, immaculate locker rooms, lots of space, gear for sale, and a fully equipped weights area.

My son attends MMA at your gym and unfortunately he is enthusiastic. I wanted to know if it is possible to ACTIVATE support and HELP groups for parents of kids who do MMA because frankly it is a very dangerous activity and I don't sleep at night. Thank you

I have visited Florence for a week, and I decided to try this gym due to the good reviews. The gym lived up to the amazing reputation. This is one of the best gyms I've visited, and I'm definetly coming back when I visit Florence again. Thank you Marco Santi, for the valuable lessons!

I was on vacation in Florence and wanted to train some no-gi bjj. Luckily I found this gym and was able to get some good training in, the coach was very helpful and professional. The gym itself had nice facilities and a fun, friendly culture.

“Yoga is the dance of every cell with the music of every breath that creates inner serenity and harmony.” Group and private yoga classes every morning, for sport and for life.

I have been attending the academy for about 2 months and I have already had incredible margins for improvement since I trained here, I 100% recommend this gym for anyone who wants to make a leap in quality in their fighting technique and physical form as well as muscle strengthening . It is full of courses all day where you can always test yourself with many other athletes. The lessons are held by super qualified professionals who give you the opportunity to improve on many technical aspects. I highly recommend it for those who love combat sports and are looking for a leap in quality. 💪🏻🙏🏻

Excellent competence and professionalism. Stimulating and friendly environment

A profesional environment which has good values and qualified coaches. If you are looking for a place with a high level of training this is the perfect place.

I visited Florence for a few days and was fortunate to get some great training here while in town. I coach MMA at home and have traveled to train extensively, and this was one of the best experiences I've had training abroad. The training is structured and intentional, the technique is great, and the environment is focused on learning and respect instead of ego. I'll definitely be back to train here next time I'm in Florence and I would recommend it to anyone in the area.

I’ve lived in 5 different big cities in 3 different countries. Been to mma gyms in all of them. By far Dog Eat Dog Firenze has been my favorite. You get all the specific sports that MMA requires with top level coaches and all level fighters to spar and learn with. Owner Marco is an amazing person, coach with a real martial art mind.

Had great time grappling with the folks, visited for a single training.. there weren’t many guys - it was Friday night. Everyone was super friendly though! Greg(coach) spent extra time showing me cool details and sequences after the class which speaks great deal for the dedication and love of the sport in Dog Eat Dog

Great facilities and high level coaches for pro fighters and passionate amateurs. DOG EAT DOG is really rare reality for Italy, totally unique in Florence. The best choice to becone a martial artist in town. 🥷

Dog eat Dog is one of a kind. I have been to other MMA gyms in Europe and I've never experienced a Club like Dog eat Dog. The ambitious staff works with every individual very closely to make him or her a better fighter, regardless of your current skill level. Trainers, staff and members are always kind and supportive.

Super training facilities and super professional coaches. I was really impressed and I recommend it to all athletes passing through Florence.

Highly qualified coaches, the management is clearly aware that the welfare of their members is a priority. If you want to improve your skills in mixed martial arts this is the best place ever.

I dropped in for an MMA class (including sparring) with literally no gear not even a mouthpiece, since I was on vacation and forgot to bring it. They went above and beyond to make it work; we did touch contact and signalled striking with a focus on wrestling and grappling. It was great training with both of my partners and they were responsible in terms of safety while still providing a good amount of effort/resistance when appropriate.

Hands down the best MMA gym in Florence! Run by awesome, genuine and highly qualified people who really care about their athletes. Wanna level up? Then Dog Eat Dog!!!

One of the best Martial Arts Team in Italy. MMA, Submission Grappling, Striking, Wrestling, Strength & Conditioning. Very high level, very professional and kind people. They forge modern Martial Artists: professional fighters as well as fanatic amateur lovers.

For me and the best ACCADEMY of M.M.A. from all points of view Allows you to achieve exceptional performance in the study of mix martial arts Marco and L'Elita are exceptional people that from day one they made me feel their warmth and their friendliness of the big Family Anyone she wanted to rally undertake this path could not hope for a more appropriate location to approach this sport discipline. #ALLMIGHTYMIKE

One of the best MMA gyms in Italy! Marco is a world class MMA trainer with extensive expertise in every area of the game, whether Striking, Wrestling, Grappling, or Strength & Conditioning. Would highly recommend for anyone interested in MMA or any subset of MMA.

It's a gym that exceeded my expectations, excellent professionals, monitors your progress, teaches you technical terms of martial arts. Great structure, closet, bathroom and shower.

Im an Irish man and I came to Florence. The coach was very welcoming. The classes were broken into technical work and then sparring/rounds , the coach and most of the members spoke excellent English and were very accommodating.The level of skill in this gym is remarkable I learned so much in such a small space of time from the drills and even the members correcting me on some of my bad habits where necessary. I will be speaking very highly of this gym and will definitely be returning soon!

The Dog Eat Dog academy, characterized by professionalism and hospitality, allows anyone to make progress in martial arts and physical condition.

I highly recommend this Martial Arts Academy, it is well equipped with the necessary implements for any type of combat, whether special bags or clothing for lifting weights. Not to mention the excellent service of the teachers. Marco Santi is a martial arts professional who is always available to clarify doubts and help students improve their technique. Likewise, Jobel de Castro demonstrates all his experience and knowledge in the conditioning and strength applied to fighting. It is an Academy with well-defined values ​​of respect and discipline that surely gives much more than a good physique, it changes your lifestyle.

The DOG EAT DOG gym is spectacular, very clean and with quality trainers. Hygiene for the frequenters and cleanliness throughout the hall is highly valued, to avoid infections. The most important value is respect and sportsmanship among the fighters, for the price it has it is the best of all Firenzele
