The EGF Fun Night is a pizza party, movie, nerf battle and more. Of course, it’s also a night off for the parents, and that makes it a very special weekend! We’ll build forts, watch movies, play fun games and battle the night away. As always, friends and family of our students are welcome to attend and participate. The more, the merrier!

You will learn practical techniques for using the Tomahawk and Bowie Knife alone as well as together.

Meet the Instructor

Tim Anderson is the founder of Infinity Blade Concepts. Guro Anderson began edged weapons training in 1994 in JKD Concepts at Lynx Academy under Frank Cucci and Patrick Trey of Seal Team Six. He has also trained with Tom Sotis in the family system AMOK! Tim also trained Muay Thai and Savate with Frank Cucci. Later he continued his JKD training under Mike Krivka, another full instructor under Dan Inosanto.

Tim taught the Navy Master at Arms at Patuxent Naval Air Station in Close Quarter Combatives as well as Knife & Tomahawk from 2000 to 2002. On Sept 13th, 2001 he was sworn in to the Naval Reserves as a Master at Arms Second Class and taught Close Quarter Combatives and Edged Weapons at Dahlgren Naval Base.

With over 26 years of edged weapons training and 37 years in martial arts Tim has developed a very practical system and teaching method. Also he’s fun to train with!

Reviews of the Clinic:

As an instructor for over 20 years, I am impressed by Tim’s depth of knowledge in knife and tomahawk. I have also watched his interactions with his students many times. He communicates clearly in a personable style, but what he teaches is no-nonsense, practical and very real. Tim’s love of teaching and his years of experience in his system are immediately obvious. There are few people I would trust my students with, and Tim is certainly at the top of the list. I wouldn’t hesitate for a moment to recommend taking one of Tim’s seminars to anyone with an interest in knife fighting.
