What You'll Learn
Personal training at Applied Martial Arts covers three distinct but connected systems — each one practical, pressure-tested, and taught without the nonsense that fills most martial arts classes.
Jun Fan Martial Arts
Bruce Lee's art, developed across his lifetime. Not bound by tradition — adapted to what works in real situations. Directness, simplicity, personal expression in combat.
You'll learn to intercept attacks, use economy of motion, and develop techniques that suit your individual attributes — drawing from boxing, fencing, Wing Chun, and wrestling.
Non-Classical Kung Fu
NCKF goes beyond technique — it develops body awareness, adaptive movement, and a fighting intelligence that works for your specific structure and capabilities.
Rather than teaching rigid patterns, training adapts to you. Practical, straightforward, and effective. Physical skill, mental fortitude, and personal expression developed together.
Unarmed Tactics
A comprehensive self-protection system that cuts through the mystique and focuses purely on what works under pressure. Combatives stripped down to essential effectiveness.
Drawing from boxing, wrestling, and reality-based defence — straightforward solutions to real-world situations. No elaborate techniques. No theatrical demonstrations.
