I’m Mark Sarkar, MBA from Germany and ex-Philips, turned Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt and strength coach. I founded OctaFit in JP Nagar to create a new kind of combat–strength–fitness movement — where everyday people train like athletes, fight like warriors, and grow like a community. OctaFit blends boxing, Muay Thai, MMA, BJJ, and functional strength training with programs like OctaBurn, Inferno, and StrikeZone to deliver real results in weight loss, muscle gain, discipline, and confidence. What started as one gym in JP Nagar is now my mission to build 100+ OctaFit centers across India, making combat fitness accessible, powerful, and life-changing.

​

For years, I trained, coached, and competed across martial arts and strength sports. But I kept seeing a gap in the Indian fitness scene:

​

• Gyms that focused only on machines & mirrors.

• Martial arts clubs that lacked strength training.

• Fitness centers with no real community or culture.​

I knew there had to be something better — a place where people could train like athletes, fight like warriors, and grow like a family.

​

That’s when OctaFit was born.
