Your Next Adventure Could be With Us

“As a child starting out in the Martial Arts, (before I had access to a martial arts school) I created a training environment in my backyard. I designed a complete training center from what materials and space I had available.

I wrapped pieces of carpet around the plum tree to make my own version of a Striking Dummy. I had a variety of bags hanging from different branches filled with beans or sand. I had the small racquet sized speed ball and the diamond shaped target pad for specialized striking, punching and timing. I had numerous knife and throwing star target boards (if your were around in the 80's you might have seen me on the television show "Eye On LA" where they showcased my set up - I was 15). There were ropes going high up into the largest tree in the yard which had markers for areas you needed to reach as part of an obstacle course. There were balance beams, weights, jumping areas for crash landing and back flip stations. I put anything I could fit in our tiny backyard of about 2000 square feet. I even had an obstacle course that was set up for ultimate training and offered a challenge to friends and partners.

This backyard creation and the Self-Power to improve is what developed my skills as a martial artist. From there I continued to expand by taking my training to the park, beach and mountains. This is what our travel programs are all about - being in our backyard. I want you to follow in my footsteps and this is why I have created programs based on my live-in training. CMS is not just a program for learning the marital arts or martial science - it is a lifestyle. It is also a way for you to recapture that attitude you had as a youth; one of adventure, discovery, challenge, and dreams. Playing in your backyard.

My skills were developed through this type of training. I am a massively self-taught individual. Through the martial arts and outdoor adventure, we share this power of self-development. By re-creating the training challenges I had and the environment that gave me the skills I needed to excel - you too can achieve the same results. We promote training to help you design your own destiny and follow your own dreams.”

This is the most realistic and affordable martial arts - Ninja - outdoor adventure program available today. If you are looking for a change, then this just might be your chance of a lifetime.

CMS combines the martial arts and outdoor adventure. Our program contains a series of mini challenges that will teach and prepare you for life. Through these obstacles you will stretch and grow.

In essence we are an Association of Mind, Body and Spirit. In other words: this is NOT an academic or educational training program (where you sit in a classroom or follow a school like structure) but simply a martial arts / personal growth program where one can adventure with a group of like minded individuals.

Not only will a student have awesome training - but they will also have the opportunity to assist with other programs, group training, adventure and develop their potential as a person and future Instructor.

Kris Butler - Canada “I experienced a great deal during my stay and training in association with Mr. Tew and the CMS program. I have gained massive amounts of experiences, and situational confrontations that have helped mold me into a superior form of myself. I have done more in a few months of being there then some people have done in their entire lives, I think that speaks enough for itself. Out of hard work in the program I have had countless amazing experiences. For that I am extremely grateful and despite any "hardships" I had to endure it was very worth it.”
