SMA boasts versatility and freedom in movement, following the philosophy of Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do: “using no way as way, having no limitation as limitation. ” Rather than restricting students to one art, SMA integrates various arts, drawing from Jun Fan Martial Arts, Filipino Martial Arts, and Grappling, among others. The emphasis is on identifying different ranges and selecting the most effective techniques for specific situations. Each individual's unique abilities and preferences are taken into account, as what works for one person may not work for another.

While functionality is a major focus at SMA, the school also includes training drills to improve motor skills, muscle memory reflex, timing, speed, power, and attitude. The core principles of directness, simplicity, and economy of motion guide the training, ensuring efficient and effective techniques.

SMA holds regular classes at its locations in Portsmouth, Whiteley, and Northern Ireland, providing convenient access to students across the region. To learn more about SMA and its offerings, you can visit their website at www. Jasonboh. Com.
