Welcome To Silat Fitrah Online Training

My mission is to give you an insight into the beautiful art of Silat Fitrah, the Malay Art of Natural Self Defence.

 

Each online training course is taught in an easy to learn format by using a teaching approach that is compulsory for all Silat Fitrah Instructors.

 

In this series I will teach you:

 

  • The movement/sequence - i.e. the Jurus / Langkah;
  • The biomechanics - contraction / expansion, rhythm;
  • Pad work drills that develop power, speed and flow;
  • Applications, including proactive strikes;
  • Footwork drills;
  • Aggressive defence against multiple attackers.

 

I have been a private student of Guru Tua Chris Parker for nearly 27 years, learning the art of Silat Fitrah has completely enhanced my life. I hope in some way it also helps to enhance yours.

 


Elements of Jurus 1

‘Every Strike Should End The Fight’

 

‘Be hard to hit and learn to hit hard’ is a principle that was taught to me many years ago by my teacher, Guru Tua Chris Parker.

 

Jurus enable us to develop multiple strikes, using different parts of the hands and arms. They also teach us to keep our head and body protected behind our elbows and/or our forearms.

 

In Silat Fitrah there are 3 different approaches to striking. These are:

 

1. Single strikes;

2. Strikes that bounce from one target to another;

3. Slaps, delivered by a single hand or by both simultaneously, that flow and shear.

 

These different strikes can, of course, be combined.

 

Combining elements of the Jurus with our Langkah creates a powerful combination; it is how we hit hard whilst being hard to hit.

“Excellent video. Packed, stacked and racked with info. It's well structured and the different perspectives of demo, pads and applications will help to drill in the lessons. Really liked the emphasis on how one elbow helps to clear the defense before the other arrives with the strike. If you are thinking about the purchase, don't think, buy the course, you won't regret it. ”

“Highly recommended! Just finished all three movies and started playing around with the Lankah. Excellent content and instruction in all three. Don't be fooled by first look, even if there are a few basic concepts covered they are applicable for a lot of different situations and settings. One of the best thing about it all is that Eddie shows the application against typical street attacs and not against another silat player. Comes highly recommended👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

Instructor Bio:

Welcome! I'm Eddie Quinn, a professional martial arts teacher. I’m based in my hometown of Solihull, England, although I teach martial arts and self defence across the entire globe.

My martial arts journey began 37 years ago... On night of the 23rd November 1984, I attempted to defend three girls who were being attacked at a bus stop.

It resulted in me getting stabbed a total of six times. The right ventricle in my heart, my liver, bowel, gallbladder, head and thigh were all punctured in the attack. Thankfully I survived.

During recovery, my heart surgeon recommended I take up a Combat Sport. I took his advice and began my journey to seek out the best martial arts teachers from around the world.

This journey not only rebuilt my life; it saved my life. I believe that my calling in life is to share with others the benefits of the Martial Arts I have studied and mastered over the years.

I've taught Counter Terrorist Units, Police Officers, Anti-Poaching Units, Elite Military, and members of Bodyguard Detachments for Royals, Presidents and Prime Minsters. The Approach Method I founded was voted System of the Year at The British Martial Arts Awards 2016 and 2017, and I also won Reality Instructor of the Year 2017.

In 2019 I was voted ‘Martial Arts Man of the Year’. Many great titles, but it all sums down to this:

Great teachers change the world for the better by helping others improve their lives, their aspirations and their outcomes. I hope I can do that for you.
