Real violence is fast, chaotic, and unpredictable. An attacker may give you no opportunity to assume a perfect stance, establish ideal distance, or execute a rehearsed sequence of movements.

That's why Cane Fighting Skills emphasizes functional striking methods and realistic preparation for confronting violent aggression.

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced martial artist, you'll find straightforward instruction supported by extensive photographic demonstrations. No previous martial arts training is required to begin learning and practicing the fundamentals.
