Serrada Escrima: Serrada Escrima is the fighting system and teaching methodology developed and used by the late Grandmaster Angel Cabales. Angel Cabales was the only known heir of Grandmaster Felisimo Dizon. The Serrada system was developed to produce competent escrimadors in 6 months to a year and master level practitioners in as little as three years. Serrada is first taught as a stickfighting art but at it's core it is a bladed system. Serrada also has an extensive empty hand curriculum and has a highly developed system of Espada y Daga or Blade and Dagger concepts.
The system is taught with a short stick in comparison to most other Filipino Martial Arts. A common way to measure the weapon length in Serrada is to check the distance from the arm pit to the wrist or mid-hand. While known as a corto or close range system, Serrada is also commonly seen practiced at the medio range. This is where the practitioner can hit their opponents body with the primary weapon and still remain out of range for the secondary weapon with out a change in footwork.
Serrada also uses a medium frame work; practitioners are usually found forward weighted in what is commonly called the 60/40 stance. Serrada practitioners use this framework to easily load weight into either leg. This allows practioners to either ground their power when hitting or blocking, or to spring out when moving.
From a historical context Serrada is a sister art to Kali Ilustrisimo, the Villabrille-Largusa System of Kali, and Doblete Rapilon Arnis. Of the four systems Serrada is known for specializing at the corto or close range. The empty hand techniques of Serrada have often been compared to Wing Chun, but with a more mobile footwork and frame. Serrada also shares similarities with some of the standing techniques of Sera-Serak Silat and Hsing-I Chuan.
The beauty of system is in it's teaching and training structures. Serrada has a systematic progression that allow a new students to quickly, safely, and confidently move from novice to competent practitioner. The system also has intense and rigorous structures for those who are committed to bringing their practice and skills to a level of mastery.
BRI/Jeet Kune Do: BRI/JKD is based on the “Latter Stage” JKD platform and includes "modified" facets of Jun Fan Gung Fu (early JKD) Wrestling and Jiu Jitsu… “Latter Stage” Jeet Kune Do “ is about dynamic and explosive footwork that can be applied to enhance your stand up game regardless of your background. JKD at it’s highest level is about delivery and avoidance with emphasis on "delivery” with full body weight, mass accelerated movement and recovery. While most people know JKD as a blend of many styles, for us it is Bruce’s application of geometry, physics and kinesiology in the realm of effective Stand Up Fighting. It is the ultimate adaptable vehicle.
BRI/Kali Abtik: BRI/Kali Abtik is a Modern Filipino method with a strong Traditional Root that includes influences from JKD & Boxing. Kali Abtik is an art that includes both drilling and freestyle sparring with padded weapons and safety gear. Kali Abtik also includes CQD/Mano-Mano techniques designed for defense against weapons and close quarter defense as well as Panuntukan/Sikaran. Kali Abtik is directly inspired from Guro Ted Lucaylucay's Kali, with emphasis on "Abtik". Abtik is defined as the explosive use of stepping, pivoting and sinking or raising to power and time the stroke. Ultimately the strategy is to win and to avoid "double kill" through control of distance, timing and position.
"As Head of BRI, Mark Stewart is based in Thailand and is known for returning JKD back to L.A. Chinatown since 1992, Mark Stewart is one of the rare JKD Instructors who has been exposed to Early JKD, Later JKD and JKD Concepts and offers a view outside of any particular camp.

“Mark Stewart’s Panantukan is outstanding. If you are looking for authentic, high level Panantukan, I highly recommend you train with Mark Stewart!”
– Guro Burton Richardson
“As a lifelong martial arts student & researcher, I’ve been fortunate to have had the opportunity to learn of, meet, and train with some of the world’s finest martial artists. However, some of the most outstanding fighters are not always the best when it comes to pedagogical skill. As a student of the martial arts, your growth is completely dependent on how well someone can make a particular skill set comprehensible, digestible, and reproducible for you. Mark Stewart is one of those rare instructors who not only has distinguished himself as a topflight fighter, but also someone who is devoted to making his skills YOUR skills. He has the tremendous ability to make training sessions, fun, challenging, realistic, and rewarding. The time you spend training under his guidance will pay you solid dividends!”
