ARDIS SMITH

Ardis is a brown belt under Finishers MMA training at both the Bethlehem and Allentown locations and is the kickboxing coach at 10th Planet Allentown. Ardis originally found grappling as a wrestler and has been wrestling since he was 15 years old. Ever since he was a young boy he wanted to be an MMA fighter because of playing the game Street Fighter. He wrestled D2 in college at East Stroudsburg University and after finishing college, came to 10th Planet Bethlehem and really fell in love with training. He trains both striking and grappling equally and has experience in both grappling competitions and kickboxing, as well as MMA. He considers his striking style to be more MMA based because of his background in wrestling.
