This clip demonstrates the importance of linking striking, grappling, and positional dominance into one seamless fighting system rather than treating them as separate skills.
If you’re looking for practical martial arts training that develops real-world combat principles, come and train with us at KORA. New students are always welcome in our Pencak Silat, Sword & Dagger, and KORA Combat Essentials classes.
Join us and discover what integrated martial arts training can do for you.
Traditional martial arts have generally followed one of two paths: they either continued to evolve or gradually became museum pieces due to underuse or a lack of understanding of the changing environment.
At KORA, we preserve traditional arts that remain effective in today’s world, a world best understood as a bladed weapons-based hostile environment.
These systems were originally developed for exactly that context. Some later fell out of favour, while others remained closed-door traditions, known only to a small number of practitioners. Through decades of research, training, and testing, I’ve worked to preserve their original principles while ensuring they remain relevant and functional today.
Please see our Arts page to see the acts we teach.
While the arts themselves are traditional, the way I teach them is not. My coaching combines modern learning principles, contemporary coaching methods, and many years of practical teaching experience to help students develop skills, understanding, and confidence.
Traditional arts. Modern coaching. Timeless principles.
