About OpenMat
Learn straight from the best in combat sports. Teach, and get paid for it. Find gyms, open mats and your people, all in one place.
Our Mission
OpenMat exists so you can learn directly from the best coaches and athletes in combat sports, and so the people teaching can earn a living from it. Creators publish technique, series, and courses, set their own prices, and get paid by the students who subscribe. Around that, OpenMat helps you find gyms, open mats, and training partners wherever you are.
We believe that combat sports training is best when shared. Our goal is to break down the barriers between gyms, styles, and experience levels so that every practitioner can find the community, knowledge, and opportunities they deserve.
