Training – CAI-Defense techniques are based on scientific research of self-defense, tested and proven in the real world. The CAI methods of self-defense focuses on reflexes and natural body movements that do not require a lot of power and aims to avoid violence reflexively.
Our programs and philosophies stem from ancient martial arts techniques and functional police and military techniques suitable for the modern world.
CAI’s defense program teaches practical ways to prevent all kinds of violence and attacks. For maximum benefit , it is important to train under real world conditions, that are as close to the actual scenario as safely possible.

We teach the skills to confront real world threats. We practice in realistic settings and teach concepts and impov skills to defend and control random attacks, in simulated scenarios and places of everyday life, ie. (pubs, streets, parks, cars, toilets, mass transit, homes, buses, passenger planes).
The C.A.I. method is a practical system of self-defense. All angles and positions are designed to make it easy to perform the best control method at the highest speed even for a sudden attack.
Improvisational Self Protection Weapons: (RAW) Many traditional martial arts are trained using old traditional weapons. For example, sword, nunchaku, tonfa, spear, bow. This training is fine as a hobby, but not a self-defense technique. None of these weapons are carried around on a daily basis, and many are not allowed outside the school. Even knives cannot be taken onboard planes and trains when traveling.
However, there are many potential self-defense aid weapons that are legal and available most places.
For example, ink pens, magazines, keys, umbrellas, canes, shoes, chairs and many more.
These items we call “Readily Available Weapons” R.A.W.©️ www.chuntianacademy.com
We teach how to use these everyday items to protect yourself functionally in multiple scenarios..
