About the Instructor

Kai Kühn FMA24 Academy provides instruction in Filipino Martial Arts, Latosa Escrima, and practical self-defense.

Study Programs

Kai Kühn FMA24 Academy offers specialized digital distance learning programs centered on Filipino Martial Arts, specifically Latosa Escrima, as well as practical self-defense systems. The academy does not award academic degrees such as bachelor or master diplomas, focusing instead on continuous digital training memberships, modular self-paced video courses, and personal one-on-one coaching. Its central instructional offering is the digital Escrima Club, a structured video learning platform led by Master Kai Kühn. This program includes more than 390 thematic video lessons spanning over 18 hours of instruction, with new video modules added each month. Learners who enroll in the comprehensive Premium Membership receive unrestricted streaming access to all German-language content, including the Escrima Club and all existing and future online courses. The portfolio features self-paced modular online courses that combine video instruction with texts, reference lists, diagrams, and illustrations. Within the Hammer Concept Protection curriculum, the academy provides specialized self-defense courses including Kubotan Quickstart and Hammer Concept Palmstick Defense, which focus on personal protection using tools such as the Kubotan, palmstick, and tactical pen alongside unarmed defensive transitions. In the area of weaponless combat, the academy features the English-language course Latosa Escrima Filipino Boxing by Grandmaster Rene Latosa, designated as Street Logic Series number one. This program spans eight video lessons across 56 minutes, teaching the fundamentals of Pinoy Boxing or Cadena de Mano through instruction on jabs, hooks, straight punches, body mechanics, and practical street applications. To support independent study, Kai Kühn FMA24 Academy provides personalized online coaching options for practitioners with foundational training experience. Students can select Video Coaching, an asynchronous option where participants submit training videos for technical review. Video Coaching Basic includes an individualized video critique, three customized instructional video lessons, and email support, while Video Coaching Plus adds a written analysis report in PDF format and a 15-minute consultation call. For live interaction, students can book real-time video sessions through the 15-minute Coaching Call Check-up or the 45-minute Coaching Call Input. Coaching topics cover traditional weapons such as sticks, staffs, knives, swords, shields, and spears, alongside empty-hand techniques, body mechanics, universal entrances, sparring, and general combatives. All core instructional courses, club memberships, and coaching calls run entirely online through the digital member area, accessible at any time from computers, tablets, and smartphones. Course materials are maintained as dynamic online streaming resources without downloadable media files or physical DVD formats, allowing for regular revisions and added material. While the academy's regular curriculum is administered via remote distance learning, the instructor also conducts occasional on-site martial arts seminars in Bremen. These on-site events provide opportunities for in-person partner practice, while the digital platforms serve as ongoing instructional resources for self-study.
