British Combat Association Seminar

(Details of Iain Abernethy's seminars can be found by clicking here)

The British Combat Association is one of the world's leading groups for self-protection, close-quarter combat and practical martial arts. Peter Consterdine 8th Dan and Geoff Thompson 6th Dan are joint chief-instructors of this pioneering organisation.

Since its inception, The British Combat Association has been instrumental, more so than any other organisation before, in educating the martial arts fraternity on the true realities of combat and the complexities of self defence.

The British Combat Association has, over the past few years, become to be recognised as the international centre for the development of defensive tactics and concepts.

Their reputation for providing the very best in tuition is second to none and is the product of their Instructor Courses. These courses have become the focal point of the Association's calendar of events and have provided the very best in instruction for their member instructors. In recent years these courses have also been opened up to non BCA members.

The BCA actively encourage instructors, as part of their open philosophy, to seek as wide a range of experience of other styles and systems as possible.

27th November to November 30th 2008:

BCA Residential Seminar!

Celebrating 15 years at the very top of the U.K. martial arts scene, the British Combat Association will this year be holding a residential course in November, showcasing the very best exponents of not only practical personal combat, but of traditional systems and how they can be made to work in many spheres of life.

To be held at Lilleshall National Sports Centre, there will be not only training sessions, but a full programme of lectures and discussion groups, open to non BCA members and spearheaded by the Association's Chief Instructors, Geoff Thompson and Peter Consterdine. There will be a line-up of some of the foremost Instructors with Rick Young, 'Mo' Teague, John Skillen, Iain Abernethy, Russell Stutely and many others.

Whether you want to learn how to impact like a train, grapple for competition or combat, understand the psychology of close quarter combat, or how to develop explosive speed in punching and kicking, this course will have it all. This is an opportunity not to miss, to train and mix with some of the U.K's top practitioners.

The course will be held from Thursday 27th November to Sunday 30th November and the cost will include all training, accommodation and meals. Lilleshall is one of the finest sports training venues in the U.K.
