Our Ideas & Additional Information
Originally, the name MMA Foundation was a play on Mixed Martial Arts and 'breaking' out of the cage instead of being trapped and fighting inside a cage. But constituents did not like that reference anymore...too harsh. So then switched to some simple clipart logo of a karate teacher next to a young student holding their leg as if teaching a kick...but that is way too soft and generic.
Currently, the idea of something with a circular reference with ripple/resonating effect to represent growth, influence, life, spreading to others, etc...
Please NOTHING sterotypical or generic chinese takeout font or yin/yang stuff.
I like clever.
Also i liked the 2 sample logos 'meDoc' and 'for the love' because the symbol showed social unity and togetherness.
