yes. you should not be receiving all of your training from one gym. go to a boxing gym to work on your hands, jiu-jitsu for ground work, wrestling for takedown o/d, muay thai for kickboxing, etc.. rather than seeing one man who knows a little bit about everything, go to multiple people who know everything about one thing. nothing wrong with training mma but only time you should be solely at an mma gym is close to fights.
