SIMON MORRELL

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.

A Day in the Life At Fight Fortress. This very short clip gives you an idea of what to expect when you join us at Simon Morrell's Fight Fortress Combat Academy.

Delivering a Roundhouse Kick. We all have our own way of delivering techniques, but when throwing a roundhouse kick, for me it is so important to keep your hands high and in front of you, so that you can throw a follow-on punch.

Combat Day is Nearly Here! Not long until our annual Combat Day at Simon Morrell's Fight Fortress Combat Academy, when we look forward to welcoming new and existing friends. Regardless of your style, experience or affiliation, you will come away from Combat Day with something new to add to your current training.

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 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.

Combat Day With Simon Morrell. Self & Third-Party Protection Seminar, Sat 5th Sept 2026

When The Snow Started Coming Down. We all fail. We all lose courage, struggle, doubt ourselves and seemingly give up, but the last one on the list is not necessarily true.

What is Complete Combatives? This is a question I am asked quite frequently, and it is a fair one, as people need to know what they are training in and, quite frankly, what they are paying for.

Combat Day, Intensive Training With Simon Morrell. We are pleased to say we are now offering Combat Day Intensive Training Camps with Simon.

Simon Hits! Defending the Low Round Kick. In this short episode of Simon Hits!, Simon and Luka show two ways to defend a low round kick, or a kick to the thigh.

COMPLETE COMBATIVES SEMINAR THIS SATURDAY. This Saturday, 21st March 2026 sees the next stage of our Krav Maga & Kickboxing Instructor's course, but we are opening the event out to people who want to train but don't wish to become an instructor.

Train at Home With Simon. We are proud to offer a free ten-minute, Simon Hits! training sessions in which Simon takes you through five rounds on the bag, skipping and fitness drills.

Seminars With Simon Morrell. For Combatives & Self Defence Seminars, Fear Control Talks, Podcasts or Book Signings.

Simon Hits! Modern versus Traditional Defences. There is something to be said for both types of defences/blocks, and no reason at all why we can't cross-train them both together, using the most relevant one at the time of need.

Are You Ready For Your Black Belt Test? It is almost time for the next Black Belt test at Fight Fortress!
