Why F4FA?

Fighters and practitioners of fighting arts are especially vulnerable to overtraining and over-use injuries. The physical adaptations required of the fighting arts are incredibly diverse, and there are a lot of out-dated, poorly thought out and potentially dangerous ideas about training out there. Poor conditioning and training methods keep you from being at your best . Whether you compete or train for self defense, fitness or recreation, your training time can benefit from injury prevention and performance enhancement programs– tailored specifically to the practices of your art, your goals, your students and your body.
