Drew and Daniele attribute many of the positive aspects of their lives to the Martial Arts. Drew, having spent over 20 years instructing, has seen many lives changed for the better through involvement in the Martial Arts; from physical enhancement to lifelong friendships. Whatever style you are involved in, or want to learn, and for whatever reason, you can only benefit from training in the Martial Arts.

Both Drew and Daniele have trained in a variety of Martial Arts’ styles and have a deep appreciation for all arts. There is no question about it; every style has something to offer. Whether it is the hard self-defense training of Kun Tao, the balance and control of Tang Soo Do, the rhythmic movements of Capoeira, or the soft, fluid movements of Tai Chi; each has their individual benefit, as well as a mutual bond!

Learn something new, re-energize your passion for the Martial Arts, provide your students with a new point of view! ECTS offers seminars and training for your student base and leadership team.

Daniele Silva performing a finishing technique in competition at the US Open, Orlando, FLEast Coast Training Systems is not a Martial Arts Studio. We specialize in setting up training at your location; from one-on-one privates, to group training.

Studio Owners: Having been a studio owner himself, Drew realizes how hard it can be to keep active and motivated when you are constantly instructing. New students are great for business, but can cause you to become stagnated and out of touch with what you loved about the Martial Arts to begin with. ECTS offers training for you. Stay motivated, learn something new, and keep your students motivated as well!

As stated above, ECTS is not a studio. We want to work with you, not compete with you. Take advantage of semi-private training for you and your leadership team, or offer something new to your entire student base. We provide you with an opportunity to bring in additional income, while at the same time offering something new and exciting to your students.

IMPORTANT: We do not promote any other Martial Art's studio or Fitness Facility during a course scheduled at your facility. Our instructors wear only ECTS approved uniforms and promote future scheduled courses at your studio to your participants. Your student base stays where it should, with you! At your discretion, courses at your studio can also be opened to the public and other studios.

We provide all promotional material and bring any additional equipment we may need (any specific equipment will be discussed beforehand). We will also promote the course to area studios and/or businesses if you would like us to. Doing so can increase your network, bring in prospective students, and bring in additional revenue.

Please take a moment to learn about our ESCAPE ALIVE™ and STRIKE-FIT™ programs as well. These programs can be used to bring new people to your studio and give you another way to reach prospective students.

Below are the training options available. Please Contact Us for more information:
