Hamza Mirza
Head Coach
Hamza is Head Coach and sets the coaching direction for the whole of One Mission — how the curriculum is structured, how individual arts are taught and how they're put back together for MMA. He coaches across grappling, BJJ, wrestling, striking and MMA development, and has trained martial arts for around ten years, coaching for much of that time. Whether a student wants to learn a martial art, get fitter, sharpen a skill set or compete, his job is to make sure there's a clear route for them.
