CHUNTIAN ACADEMY INTERNATIONAL REAL-WORLD SELF-DEFENSE
Chuntian Academy International (CAI) was based in Shizuoka, Japan, from 2001–2023, providing martial arts classes, seminars, and workshops throughout Japan. In August 2023, CAI relocated to Virginia, USA.
The CAI system blends traditional martial arts, close-range Hong Kong Kung Fu, and modern police and military defensive concepts. The curriculum reflects more than 40 years of martial arts study, research, and teaching including 22 years in Asia by Master Matthew Plewes.
REAL-WORLD SELF-DEFENSE TRAINING
CAI emphasizes natural body mechanics, reflexive responses, and simple, efficient techniques that do not depend heavily on size or strength.
Students learn practical skills to:
* Prevent, avoid, and escape dangerous situations
* Protect themselves and others
* Control aggressive individuals
* Respond to multiple attackers
* Make effective decisions under stress
Realistic scenario training safely recreates situations involving streets, vehicles, public places, homes, and other everyday environments.
