Meet Master James Stewart (UK) & Master Hugo Vial (FR)
For an exceptional and 100% unique weekend in Brussels
Learn to defend yourself
Develop your knowledge of martial arts and self-defence
Discover 2 systems: Irish stick fighting and C.D.P. system
Two exceptional Masters
Hugo Vial
Hugo Vial discovered the fascinating world of martial arts and combat sports in 1989. He took up bare-hand techniques, kickboxing, Krav Maga, telescopic baton, tonfa, Balintawak-style Kali Escrima and Panantukan, before finally becoming a master in cane defence. All these experiences led him to create the C.D.P. system, a method of using walking sticks for personal defence.
James Stewart
James Stewart, a UK native, has been practising FMA for over 20 years. He discovered the martial arts in 1986 while training in the art of tai-jutsu. With his many years of experience in a wide variety of martial arts, James is an excellent instructor. He is a specialist in Irish stick fighting, but also has an interest in Yawara (short stick) and flashlight techniques.

Cane Fighters International
Guy De Ro, organiser of this exceptional seminar, discovered the power of the cane as a self-defence tool after injuring his knee. In 2001, Guy founded ‘Cane Fighters International’ to share his passion. He had the opportunity to travel to the United States to visit Grandmaster Marc Shuey Sr. to learn more about his art and cane making. His work has been recognised by Mark Shuey and the Cane Masters International Association. Today, Guy and his son Jimmy have made it their mission to sell quality fighting sticks at affordable prices, in order to make this martial art accessible to a wider public.

Our seminar is taking place in Beersel in the ‘Ons Huis’ hall, just a few minutes away from Brussels.
