Stick & Knife Combat (All Levels)

At Armak Spartan Academy, our Stick & Knife Combat classes are rooted in battle-tested Filipino martial arts like Kali and Escrima — adapted for modern self-defense. You’ll train in the tactics used to defend against and control weapons, developing speed, awareness, and real survival skills.

This program is open to all levels and designed to sharpen your reflexes, focus, and confidence in high-pressure situations. You don’t just learn techniques — you train to stay alive.
Our classes are beginner-friendly, structured, and designed to build focus, resilience, leadership, and physical strength in every student. Kids don’t just train — they level up in confidence, character, and courage with every session.

🗓️ Private sessions available by request

This advanced program teaches real-world weapon defense and offensive techniques using blades, sticks, and improvised tools. Rooted in Kali/Escrima systems, with a twist of Spartan Pankration, you’ll develop lightning-fast reflexes, spatial awareness, and survival tactics that are applicable to any self-defense scenario. Perfect for martial artists, security professionals, or anyone serious about tactical readiness.

"Great training with the Master trainer, Aris Makris. First time I walked in the place and talking with Aris felt as though I had known him forever. He is so warm, welcoming and most importantly listens carefully and has lots of advise to give on the training and what to expect. Mixed Martial Arts has brought so much discipline in my life. I strongly recommend all ages to join this awesome group. There’s even classes for working individuals from 8 pm which is pretty awesome!"

"I was never fan of training and martial arts, but I met Aris many many years ago when I brought my 6 years old son to deal with bullying in school, to build some self-defense and stand up to his height. In very short period I saw the expected results and a lot more. Eventually my daughter joined his class. His martial arts school is all about discipline, self-defense, self-esteem, self-control and life lessons especially for the little ones, from a person who has deep real values and real-life experience. Later on, I joined his mixed martial group with both of teenagers and it was awesome experience. Nowadays, I have my own semi-private training group led by Aris where the focus is in building strength, endurance and building a strong core and the results are fantastic. Thanks Aris 😊"
