Volume 2: Developing Powerful Strikes
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 27 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 2.
Developing Powerful Strikes
Learning how to develop powerful strikes is an essential attribute for all martial artists.
In volume 1 Developing essential footwork I teach how to feel the planet with our feet and use this to drive and direct movement.
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.
In this volume I teach you how to develop powerful strikes.
What You Will Learn
- How to maximise the power of your strikes by transferring weight.
- How to deliver single, powerful single strikes.
- How to deliver strikes that bounce from one target to another.
- How to deliver multiple strikes that combine the above.
- Hand, Elbow and Knee positions.
- How to keep your head protected behind the elbows and/or forearms.
- How to ensure there is no passive movement.
- Why time and distance dictates the nature of your movement.
- The importance of contraction and expansion.
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!
Your Instructor
Instructor Bio:
My martial arts journey began 39 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.
