Through our shared passion for martial arts and years of experience in self-defense and fighting arts, we join forces to develop the most enjoyable, effective, educational, and unique training courses. The training courses and philosophy are inspired by the following disciplines: ITF Taekwon-Do, Kyokushinkai Karate, Boxing, Kickboxing, Sipalki, Hapkido, Aikido, Judo, Jeet Kune Do, Wing Chung, and Shaolin Kung Fu. ITF Taekwon-Do and Traditional Boxing form the basis of the seminars. Thanks to our years of experience, we utilize various elements in Sparring / Full Contact / Self-defense.
