Martial arts gym in AlexandriaWhat to look for — and how EMMA measures up
There are plenty of gyms in Alexandria. Very few are built for martial arts. Here is an honest checklist to compare them — and where EMMA stands on each point.
- 01
Specialist coaches
What to look for: Each discipline should have its own head coach with real competition or federation credentials — not one trainer doing everything.
At EMMA:- Amir Elsayed — Founder & Head Coach
- Islam Elmessiry — Head Coach · Boxing & MMA

- Souhaib — Head Coach · Kickboxing

Real training surfaces
What to look for: A proper boxing ring, a cage and grappling mats change how you train: footwork, fence work and takedowns feel like the real thing.
At EMMA: A full boxing ring, an MMA cage and grappling mats — all under one roof. - 03
The sport you actually want
What to look for: Striking, grappling or both? Make sure the gym runs your discipline regularly, not once a week.
