Our Journey & Growth
The founder, Craig Burman established Close Quarter Street Combat in 1995 in Port Macquarie, NSW, Australia.
He started Boxing when he was 8yrs old, then over the next 2 decades trained in many different Martial Arts and Combat Arts.
The original name of the school was CBK Street Combat.
In 2003 the name was updated to Close Quarter Street Combat as it accurately defines the type of self defence taught.
Over the next 2 decades he continued to train with many different Reality Based Self Defence systems and Masters here and abroad.
CQSC coach's take your Personal Protection seriously. We understand that its usually someone bigger, stronger and angrier who picks the fight with you and they don't fight fair, well, neither do we.
We train and continue to test our Counter Attack Strategies & Tactics in Scenario Drills, over & over to ensure the best outcomes.
CQSC's Code is to live in Peace and be ready for War.
