Volume 1: Developing Great Footwork
Elements of Silat Fitrah Solo Training
Welcome to the Elements of 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 course is taught in an easy to learn format and is specifically designed so you can learn at home and practice on your own.
I have been a private student of Guru Tua Chris Parker for 30 years and learning the art of Silat Fitrah has completely enhanced my life.
I hope in some way it also helps to enhance yours.

Volume 1.
Developing Great Footwork
Great footwork is an essential attribute for all martial artists.
The ability to feel the planet with our feet and use this to drive and direct movement underpins everything we do.
Great footwork:
When I first began to feel the planet beneath me and learnt how to drive movement from it, the power in my strikes and the understanding of how to move my body correctly improved massively.
Consequently, I always begin my students’ Silat training with the footwork drills I am sharing with you in this course.
The drills are ideal when training alone and, if practised regularly, will build a solid and strong foundation.
Having great footwork will improve your physical awareness and striking power as well as your offensive and defensive capabilities.
What You Will Learn
Training alone has always played an important part in my martial arts development.
With the world still coming to terms with the challenges posed by Covid -19, the need for progressive solo training drills is increasingly apparent.
I’m delighted to share some of my own, tried and tested, routines with you!

Read MoreI found this to be a fantastic online course that really enabled me to get insight in to movement and how to move better in my training at home - it all starts with the feet and the drills that Guru Eddie demonstrates in this video is done in such a way that you really can train at home with him to understand some of the key Silat principles. You can't underestimate the value of footwork and this course really worked for me with the way Eddie made it so simple to follow and allowed me build on the principles as I worked my way through the drills.

Read MoreQuite possibly the most transformative module I've ever experienced, and I've been involved in teaching (& learning) martial arts for decades. Eddie Quinn has an engaging teaching style that's very easy to follow, but what sets this course apart is the practical value of the information given. By simply using your legs to ''push away the planet,'' as Eddie teaches, you're correctly setting up the entire body from the ground upwards, instantly ready to defend or attack. As I've discovered, it doesn't matter what style you train with, you can use this course to give yourself a strong & stable structure that's ready to respond to whatever unpleasantness is out there!

Read MoreFocusing on footwork may not be the most stimulating in terms of action, but it is certainly something a martial artist can never get good enough at, and something that is perfect to devote time to when normal contact training is unavailable. This is a very well explained and very well structured program to improve ones movement, footing and ability to transfer weight when moving, striking, sweeping etc. It has also given me good inputs for my warmups.

Read MoreAn excellent course which truly captures Eddies brilliance as a teacher. Very simple easy-to-follow instruction which is clear, concise and engaging. The flow of the content feels natural, though effort is required, you will see the quality of improvement in your footwork, The best thing is I can learn it anywhere anytime! An absolute must if you are serious about learning Silat Fitrah, then you must be serious about learning footwork!

Read MoreEvery time I watch Eddie teach I learn so much. This course covers an essential element of any fighting art - Footwork, this is a Silat course yet I cannot help to find so much more that I can apply to my own training outside of Silat. Eddie has a true gift in being able to clearly state the necessary information and put it across in an easy and accessible manner. I love the fact that he doesn't clip any goofs or slips from the videos as he shows that he is human and these things happen. Whilst I am barely a novice with Silat, the lessons within this module apply to the Taekwon-Do I have been practicing for decades and give me more ways to explain movement to my own students. Gold as always 🙏

Read MoreEddie's teaching is approachable, friendly and easy to follow... Clear explanations and visual cues and making what could be a complex topic very straightforward and understandable. The drills will also help footwork for other martial arts. Looking forward to starting the other courses.

Read MoreFootwork drills, in depth explanation of how essential excellent footwork is in Silat Fitrah & how this area of training is so often neglected by individuals. In my opinion Guru Eddie Quinn has smashed it again and produced an easy to follow training module to help you develop as a martial artist, enhance chances of survival of a violent encounter & has certainly mapped out easy to follow lesson plans..All you have to do is follow the lesson plans presented to develop this most neglected area of self protection & martial arts development. Guru Eddie is always full of energy, motivated and is an awesome teacher!!!!
