Access
One payment, lifetime access: every lesson, download, and future update. With an eligible SAMI membership you can access the lessons while it is active.
Train in person too
Online, you learn at your own pace. At a center, you train the same system with partners and an instructor who corrects you on the spot.
Many drills can be done solo. For some techniques, a partner is helpful – but they do not need any martial arts experience. Partner drills are optional and meant to support timing and application.
Panantukan combines fluid movement, clever angles, fast reactions, and practical applications. It focuses on efficiency rather than strength, making it an ideal entry point into a modern and highly effective fighting art.
Yes. You can access the course on smartphone, tablet, laptop, or desktop. For the best experience, we recommend a stable internet connection and fullscreen mode.
No. “Start the Fight” is intentionally not complex. You will learn clear basics and small, motivating challenges that help you improve step by step without feeling overwhelmed.
Because you learn how to make the first decisive move: taking control before the opponent does. It’s not about aggression, but about clarity, initiative, and being able to act when it matters most.
This course is designed for complete beginners who want to discover Panantukan. You don’t need any previous martial arts experience – everything is taught step by step.
This course gives you a strong foundation, but real self-defense ability requires more training, repetition, and additional modules. Think of this course as the perfect starting point – not a full self-defense program yet.
