SIMON MORRELL’S COMBAT & FEARLESS ONLINE ACADEMY, FREE BAGWORK DOWNLOAD!

Are You a Recreational Martial Artist or Something More? For those of us who take up a Martial Art, we all have different reasons for doing so, and none of us really know where it will take us. Not at first, anyway. The overriding factor for starting the journey is usually to gain confidence, to learn the physical skills needed to look after ourselves and our loved ones. Some of us are just so sick and tired of the fear, the beatings and the daily path of avoidance. Avoiding

Combat Day & Guest Instructor. Self-Protection Expert Simon Morrell will now be joined on the mats by guest instructor and Muay Thai Champion Lee Mayo for a day of training at Fight Fortress Combat Academy.

The Day You Become a Blalck

Days With Giants At Fight Fortress. We have been extremely lucky to have some of the greats in the Martial Arts and Fighting World grace us with their presence at Fight Fortress here in North Wales. The short talk above tells the stories of when Geoff Thompson, Peter Consterdine and Alfie Lewis all, at one time or another, took to our mats. These truly were Days With Giants.

We are very lucky that people ask us what our latest projects are so listen in as Simon gives a short update. Remember for bookings, physical self defence seminars and talking events, please email me, Julie at info@simonmorrell.com

Highlights From Our Online Program. In this first free clip taken from our Combat & Fearless Online Academy, Simon & Luka demonstrate defences against a punch, kick and knife strike.

Simon Morrell's Fitness Pyramid. If you want to get fit to fight, truly fit, then there are five fitness levels that need to be addressed. For example, if you plan ten 2-minute rounds of sparring, then it isn't rocket science to know you must be able to breathe correctly for that twenty minutes, which would fall under Aerobic, the first level of the pyramid. If we can't get that right, we have very little chance of improving the other four levels.

Simon Hits, Two Simple Takedowns. In this, Simon Hits! Simon teaches two simple takedowns from a grab and a right cross. Remember to practice at a sensible speed, only moving to full drill mode when you are completely confident in your skill set.

In this free Simon Hits! episode, Simon shows how to build a nice Kickboxing pad combo using the pyramid build up method.

Brand New Downloads Now Available. Simon Hits Pro Episodes One & Two are now available to rent or buy from our Online Academy.

How to Self-Motivate. Training partners, business associates, or any third party really, can and will at some point let us down. If that is the case, it is easy to go back to the house, pour a glass of wine and put on a film. Trust me, that is not how we get our Black Belt, win our fight or make that business work.

Some words on training, fears and moving forwards.
