It’s Fight Club, But ‘Gay’
Spaces like boxing and mixed martial arts gyms haven’t always, historically, been the most hospitable to people in the LGBTQ collective but Red Earth MMA, over on Broadway in Bushwick, has made itself especially open to prospective customers regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity.
In 2016, the gym’s head coach Mario Marin started getting petitioned by several of the gay fighters at the gym to start dedicating a space at the gym for LGBTQ fighters and provide them a little pocket of period each week to learn and educate kickboxing and muay thai. Marin said yes and that’s how the neighborhood’s “Gay Fight Club” was born.
“Giving people a giant neon sign that says ‘Gays here, come learn fighting’ should at least help assuage a little bit of that trepidation and adverse experiences where they tried to fight before,” said Daffodil Bisono, a trainer at Red Planet that’s been running its Male lover Fight Club since 2021.
“With Lgbtq+ Fight Club, I want it to be a group space. I wish people to appear in even to just manage emotions and get some physical activity,” said Bisono.

How Gay and Lesbian Couples Can Stop Fighting
When you fight with your partner it can touch like they are the opponent. LGBTQ couples can get momentarily trapped in a belief that the person they love is evil, intent on doing them harm. Unless you are in love with a sociopath, your partner is not evil. But I understand that’s how it feels when you are in a cycle of fighting.
As you take a closer look at your fights, perhaps you will see this very common pattern: One of you attacks and the other gets quiet and distant.
Decades of research on couples shows that this pattern is the most widespread and enduring one in relationships.
Underneath this exhausting dance, here is what may be happening for each of you:

Fighting With Pride supports the health and wellbeing of LGBT+Veterans, service personnel and their families – in particular those most impacted by the ban on LGBT+ personnel serving in the Armed Forces, ultimately lifted on the 12th January.
We are pleased of the achievements of our serving LGBT+ personnel. They serve in every part of the Armed Forces and are supported at every level of command.
In stark contrast, and despite the passing of over 20 years since the ‘gay ban’ was finally lifted, no attempt has been made to support the recovery of the thousands of LGBT+ service personnel dismissed or forced from service prior to 2000.
We want to unite service charities and organisations to those LGBT+ veterans who have been left behind.
