MUAY THAI - Kickboxing
There is no fixed syllabus for Muay Thai Kickboxing at Elite Fighting Arts.
TOUDE-JUTSU
Toude-Jutsu / Tsuyoi-Kakuto (Power Combat) our Budo Japanese MMA system within the Dojo, sits alongside our Kudo MMA programme (Kudo is a Japanese MMA system & competitive outlet). Unlike Kudo, Toude-Jutsu has a syllabus. Although, Toude-Jutsu is not as formally structured as Kyokushin, allowing for variations in training and evolution of our methods, it does not therefore require a whole section of fixed movements for study, as offered in our Kyokushin system (See further links in this section, on the top right of this page). The Toude-Jutsu syllabus & Kyokushin syllabus are attached below:
