The Shark Tank mixed martial arts gym
was founded in 1995 by Eddy Millis.
Eddy Millis began teaching martial arts
to a few friends at a local jr. college.
Several weeks later a few friends became
over 30 students. It was not till one
of the fathers of a Shark Tank student
suggested for the guys to start competing,
that The Shark Tank Team was born.
In the early days Team Shark Tank frequently
traveled to Mexico, Hawaii and some local
under ground shows to fight. There was
no money really, only the desire to compete
and take their hard training to a next
level. Training in the early days was
nothing short of brutal. Fighters from
the Shark Tank were known for always being
in top shape and their submissions (especially
leg locks) were something to be feared
in the cage.
To this day fighters from The Shark Tank
have fought in almost every major MMA
show on the planet. UFC, K-1, Superbrawl,
and Pancrase, to name just a few.
Today ST3 or Shark Tank 3rd generation
is composed of some new, hungry fighters
as well as a few veterans who have been
in the fight game a while. Along with
some great trainers and a rigorous training
schedule, Team Shark Tank plans to have
a strong year in Mixed Martial Arts competitions.
