Crane & Cobra Close Combat

The Crane & Cobra Close Combat method is based in sound fight physics that apply to every human body.

Want to learn Wing Chun Kung Fu?  Are you intrigued by chi sao training and the wooden dummy?  At Crane & Cobra we have numerous lineages back to Ip Man!  

Or perhaps you’re interested in a blending or mixing of martial art styles?  We also offer Jeet Kune Do, kickboxing, Western boxing, and basic ground techniques (falls, throws, joint locks, chokes) based on Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Judo in addition to our Wing Chun.  

Every CCCC student learns very practical self protection and defense skills too!

The bulk of our method lies in adaptation and flow.  We focus on the human geometry and physics as it applies to fighting.  When our Wing Chun base methods are applied properly the small can overcome the large and it is possible for the weak to defeat the strong. The private and semi-private lessons we teach will rapidly advance your skills and understanding especially if compared with most group class settings.
 
 
Self Defense is different from many martial arts and sport fighting.  At Crane & Cobra we believe it’s important to train to be ready (or near ready) for both – train to be fit to win like the athlete, and aggressive and efficient like a deceptive, violent criminal.  In this way you’ll be more adaptable and harder to hurt.  Don’t worry – everyone is at a different place in their life – there’s no better time to start your journey! It’s important to know how to protect your vital parts while learning how to disrupt an attackers structure and overwhelm the criminal’s attack.
 
The Crane & Cobra Close Combat methods teach:
 
  • Awareness
  • Aggression 
  • Adaptation
 
 

Reasons to learn the Crane & Cobra Close Combat method:   
 
Criminals prey on the weak and the unsuspecting!  Criminals do NOT follow laws!
 
Learning to protect yourself and your loved ones is important and contributes to the greater good of your family and your immediate community!
 
Training for self defense and training a martial art boosts confidence and can aid in attaining mental, emotional, and physical clarity!
 
Training is good for overall health and wellness!  You probably won’t win a fight if you are out of shape!  
 
You live in or near Puyallup or Tacoma, WA and want your family to be healthy and safe.
 
 
The fact is we all exist in a fragile society that’s barely strung together between control and chaos, morality and evil.  Gone are the days when most folks used to leave their front doors unlocked.  Knowing how to avoid dangerous situations and how to prevent life threatening bodily injury becomes more and more necessary as lawlessness, infestations of narcotics, homelessness, and crime skyrockets.  
 
At Crane & Cobra Close Combat you’ll learn to navigate this environment.  Even beginners learn how to “Train like an Athlete and to Think and Fight like a Criminal!”
 
 
This means we’ll go over exercise, discipline, and flow like all skilled martial artists and athletes train for but we’ll also get into “knowing our enemy” and learn to be brutal, ruthless, and predatory if or when (God forbid) someone truly threatens your family or your life.

Testimonials

"Sifu Garrett Stevens offers instruction that will bring you to a far higher precision in your movement that is based on the founding principles of Wing Chun. The more you train the more you will appreciate his expert instruction. The better your body learns to react correctly without you thinking of what to do the less likely you’ll ever fall victim to someone with ill intent. There are those who speak of perfecting their Wing Chun skills and then there are those who perfect their personal skills and can teach it well to others. Sifu Garrett is in the latter group and is a terrific inspiration to follow. "

"One of the best Sifus going today!"

"Choosing to learn from Crane and Cobra was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Not only is Sifu Garrett a great teacher but he definitely knows what he’s talking about and has great knowledge to pass down. Since joining his teachings I have gained a huge amount of insight into what martial arts really means and have kept an open mind for what needs to be applied in real life situations. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND his school for everyone and anyone who’s willing to take on the path of righteousness."

"Awesome stuff! Do yourself a favor and take his classes."

"Great seminar. I left realizing self defense isn't just about fighting. But awareness, come to the next one. Highly recommend"

"This (seminar) was really good. Garrett spoke about many things people don't normally think about..being vigilant. The demonstrations provide a confidence, through simple movement, to throw off an offender so you can get away or strike again to disable them. Thanks for your time, for being thorough and taking our questions with patience. We need a part 2."

"I highly recommend Crane & Cobra (and their seminars) as an opportunity to grow in your own self defense understanding, or as a team-building exercise for you and your organization, or your family."
