FMA Tucson

"Great teacher and realistic training!"

"Kali has been a great learning experience. I love the practicality of the movements and the realism of the scenarios presented. All body types and different levels of athleticism can participate and this also helps everybody hone their craft. Weapons class is another benefit to participating because it is a normal part of the class and not a special event that is introduced every so often. Steve brings a common sense and fun approach to self-defense and the traditional elements of martial arts. Whether it's discussions about traditional martial arts or questions regarding defense in the streets, I always come away with learning something. I encourage everyone to try it once and you'll be hooked."

"Very positive & friendly learning environment. Combined with a pragmatic, empirical approach to self-defense."

"Steve is a great teacher. I’ve trained with him for 2 years. He blends effective techniques and principles to create an effective self defense class... and most importantly its fun! Highly recommend!!"

"I'm currently taking the FMA Weapons Class, and I love it. It's a very practical with a no nonsense approach to fighting with edge and none-edged weapons. These are martial arts concepts and techniques that are still relevant for the modern world. It's also great that Steve (the instructor) is so patient and willing to work with individuals at any martial arts skill or experience level."
