The Fuseki Martial Arts System aims to give it's practitioners the full range of options, enabling them to respond to any of the situations which could occur in combat. To achieve this, the creator of the FUSEKI Martial Arts System, Martin Smith, drew from over three decades of training in various systems, with top instructors from around the world.

During it's formation, the system was broken down into twelve programmes, in which all aspects of training can be placed. However, the programmes are not the syllabus, rather the syllabus is drawn from the programmes. Students of the system will have a deep understanding of the first 9 programmes by the time they attain 2nd Dan. Programmes 10 to 12 are then studied & mastered during the 3rd & 4th Dan levels.
