Stanford Quarrie Art of Combat wishes all its students a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I wish to thank all my students for their continued support and hope they have enjoyed the Seminars and Workshops over 2011! I have seen all the students advance well over the year and happy to see you have all taken away the skills learnt from Art Of Combat and made them your own!
We look forward to continue our self defence training in 2012 where we plan to introduce more stage 1-3 seminars to welcome new students into the camp and also more frequent self defence workshops with more advanced techniques for our qualified students. Also keep an eye out for a new DVD releases including a new Art of Combat Stretching DVD as well as Stages 2 & 3 Self Defence Training DVD's.
Thankyou for your great attendance over the last couple of months at our Self Defence Training Workshops in North London!
Over the last couple of months the workshops have been based mainly around repetition and the practice of the advanced skills we have learnt over 2011. I can see you all becoming much more comfortable with the advanced techniques during single and mass attack scenarios. Well Done!
Please continue to leave any feedback comments on the blog!

Firearm training is only trained in Level 3 Seminars.
Welcome to the Stanford Quarrie Art of Combat, an art which takes nothing away from you but helps you to improve and understand the capability of oneself. The art is a smooth flowing, low energy defensive controlling system. The use of the opponents energy is a must to conserve your own. Regardless of your background, whether or not you do martial arts, you will benefit from this flexible art where relaxation is paramount. Someone who concentrates on power only with extreme tension will no doubt suffer from joint problems in later life. The art prepares one mentally and physically to deal with mass attack and disarming edge weapons and firearms. Break falling training is important as most fights end upon the ground/floor and damage is done when contact is made on the hard surface. Stanford has over thirty years experience in martial arts (close contact) and kickboxing.
We welcome all to the art with good intention and respect for all.
