Our story

About TFT MMA

Originally known as The Fish Tank, TFT MMA was founded in 2010 by professional MMA veteran and respected coach Andrew Fisher.

Based in Seaham in the North East of England, TFT is a family-owned and operated mixed martial arts gym, managed by Andrew alongside his wife, professional fighter and IMMAF World and European Champion Katrina Fisher.

Over more than a decade, TFT has grown into one of the most established and successful MMA gyms in the region. The gym has become home to world champions, professional athletes and rising prospects competing across some of the sport’s biggest organisations, including the UFC, ONE Championship, KSW, PFL, Cage Warriors and OKTAGON MMA.

Andrew has spent more than 20 years competing and coaching at the highest level of UK MMA. Together, Andrew and Katrina have created a gym built on experience, innovation and a genuine commitment to developing every person who walks through the door.

What guides the gym

Our Core Values

Growth

We help every member improve, regardless of their age, experience or starting point.

Integrity

We believe in honest coaching, safe training, fair opportunities and respect for every member.

Resilience

We help people develop the confidence, discipline and determination needed to overcome challenges both inside and outside the gym.

These values influence everything we do, from developing professional fighters and Team England athletes to helping complete beginners build confidence, improve their fitness and learn new skills.

TFT may be known for producing world-class fighters, but you do not need any previous experience or aspirations to compete.

We offer welcoming classes for adults, women, teenagers and children from four years old, with opportunities for recreational members, complete beginners and competitive athletes.

Whether you want to get fitter, learn self-defence, build confidence, compete or simply become part of a supportive team, there is a place for you at TFT MMA.
