WE ARE A REALITY BASED SELF DEFENSE SCHOOL, NOT A SPORTS BASED FIGHT CLUB.
Jeet Kune Do: is the core of our martial arts philosophy that we teach in Tucson and is the scientific art of street fighting developed by Bruce Lee. Lee developed a way of self defense to end a fight that was simple, direct, and economical.
Filipino Martial Arts/Kali: passed on by Sifu Paul Vunak to Sifu Kirby Tucker and now to Sifu Sabino the Kali system developed by Dan Inosanto consists of 12 Areas, including the Single Stick, Double Sticks, Stick and Dagger, Single Dagger, and Empty Hands. Kali is an excellent warfare-based martial arts for self defense that teaches you how to use any weapon.
Rapid Assault Tactics: The official combat fighting method of the U. S. Navy SEAL Teams; this streamlined version of JKD applies rapid, pain- inducing entries, in-your-face pressure, and brutal termination of the enemy; applied correctly, R. A. T. neutralizes an opponent within 9 seconds.
