SATRIA FIGHTING ARTS

What is Satria Fighting Arts?

The Satria Fighting Arts (SFA) is a dynamic and highly effective ancient martial art and a unique Yoga system. Although its lineage date back to Vedic culture, SFA remains highly effective in all aspects of Self-Defense and is highly applicable to today’s society. SFA also promotes health and wellness through moving meditation and the Satria Yoga system. These practices help to heal trauma, emotional pain, as well as body aches and pains by balancing and integrating both the body and the mind. The Satria Yoga postures are derived from the SFA and promote the natural/proper body mechanics when practicing the postures. Because Satria Yoga is derived from SFA the postures can also be used for Self-Defense but trained without the combative element to it. Training to heighten levels of awareness is also a crucial part of the training.
