Abstract MMA, mixed martial arts, is a sport relatively understudied in Brazilian Physical Education. Therefore, this study aims to understand in which ways the relationships between the actors of a mixed martial arts (MMA) gym were built and how these relationships build etiquettes to train? From an ethnographic incursion it was possible to identify the existence of interdependent relationships between the subjects of the team: the “master” and the “training brothers”. These relationships were supported by affective ties and a set of etiquettes that allowed the team to identify itself as a "family". Among the labels that constituted the “family”, we highlight the different uses and meanings attributed to violence.
