WHAT OUR STUDENTS ARE SAYING
“Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned martial artist, you will learn the most effective self defense skills that can prepare anyone for a self defense threat and/or add more tools to your arsenal to your primary martial art style and be challenged to be more well rounded. I can speak from first hand experience that I gained more situational and body awareness to my primary fighting style thanks to Jarrad.”
— Jason K, Student“Jarrad is truly an eternal student and the depth of his knowledge spanning various martial arts/self defense forms is unmatched. I have always been impressed that all skill levels, body shapes, ages, fitness levels, ages, genders, etc. are welcomed at his classes. Also, Jarrad is a very thoughtful, specific and encouraging instructor and the self-defense concepts he teaches are reality-based and safety is always emphasized.”
— Desiree S, Student“Jarrad is an excellent head instructor; he communicates well, has a depth of knowledge of various martial arts, is well read, and personable. The name of the school is not an accident; Jarrad wants to provide you with concepts and with his guidance and your sweat & dedication, you build out from there. There is no one way.”

WHY STRUCTURED MARTIAL ARTS TRAINING MATTERS
Many people interested in martial arts or self-defense struggle to find organized instruction online. Most videos on the internet focus on isolated techniques without teaching the fundamentals that help students improve over time. Fight Elevator was created to provide a more structured approach to online martial arts training through step-by-step lessons focused on progression, consistency, and practical application.
The Fight Elevator platform helps students build strong foundations in Kung Fu San Soo, knife fighting, and practical self-defense by emphasizing body mechanics, movement, footwork, positioning, striking, leverage, and timing before advancing into more complex concepts. The San Soo curriculum taught on Fight Elevator traces through the lineage of Jimmy H. Woo, Bill Lasiter, and David Weeks, helping preserve the principles and structure of traditional San Soo training while focusing on practical real-world application.
Unlike random martial arts clips or unorganized tutorials, Fight Elevator is designed around structured learning paths that help students better understand how techniques connect together in real-world situations. Members can revisit lessons at their own pace, train from home, and continue developing their skills through organized instruction and monthly course updates.
YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED.
-
We don’t have a traditional kata system, but we do require a few short sequences called “working out procedures.” These combine techniques from your training block into a straightforward sequence you demonstrate in the air.
We created these because many students don’t have training partners. Demonstrating the sequence helps us see that you’ve practiced the material and assess how well you perform the movements on your own. Each movement comes from the practical self-defense techniques covered in your lessons.
You may hear the instruction “memorize this like a kata” in the course. This simply means learning the sequence for your test. Some systems require students to memorize 20 different katas or forms. That’s not how our program works. There’s some memorization involved, but our focus is on helping you practice the techniques and demonstrate what you’ve learned.
