By blending functional fitness with combat sport disciplines, PALESTRA athletes are tested with high intensity exercises for their speed, power, endurance, and mental toughness.

Train like a fighter. Compete like a warrior.

More than just fitness challenges, PALESTRA events are a celebration of skill, resilience, and the pursuit of excellence. Step into our arena, embrace our ethos, and train to compete like a modern warrior.
