AIKICHUN \u2013 QOWAT Egypt<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. What exactly is AIKICHUN and what makes it special?<\/strong>
AIKICHUN is a complete tactical military-academic combat system (Tactical MMA Combat with a real-world focus), specifically designed for realistic street fights, operations, and real threats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It stands out because it is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • The fastest to learn and apply<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • The easiest to understand and execute<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Achieves a solid self-defense level with just one continuous training day per week<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Very well-organized with calculated training hours (not random)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Includes weapon use\/defense + environmental exploitation<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Built purely for real-world scenarios with no sport restrictions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    2. Who is the founder of the system and what is his experience?<\/strong>
    The system is under the direct supervision of Captain Mohamed El-Fayez<\/strong>
    A tactical combat expert who has trained Chinese special forces and has extensive experience developing real-world combat curricula.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3. What is the difference between AIKICHUN and sport combat (sport MMA, kickboxing, competitive jiu-jitsu\u2026)?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Sport combat<\/strong>
    \u2192 For the ring\/cage
    \u2192 Strict rules
    \u2192 Weapons prohibited
    \u2192 Environmental exploitation prohibited
    \u2192 Goal: points or safe submission<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    AIKICHUN<\/strong>
    \u2192 For reality (street \u2013 operations)
    \u2192 No rules\/restrictions
    \u2192 Allows weapons and defense against them
    \u2192 Uses the environment
    \u2192 Goal: rapid control or survival with minimal damage<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    4. How do I join? What is the first step?<\/strong>
    There is no direct joining (except in very rare exceptions).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The mandatory first step is:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Booking the foundational lecture + practical training workshop (200 EGP)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Sending your data + ID photo + payment proof<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • After confirmation \u2192 you will be added to the batch group for scheduling
      (online theory + in-person practice at the branch)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      5. Why do I have to attend the foundational lecture and evaluation? Can\u2019t I just join directly?<\/strong>
      Because:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • We ensure your compatibility with the high-quality tactical system<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • We evaluate your neuro-muscular response speed and focus<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • We maintain the entire team at the same level of seriousness and harmony<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        The evaluation is not personal rejection<\/strong> \u2014 it is a quality assurance process for the whole team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        6. What is the result of the evaluation and what happens if I don\u2019t pass?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        • G<\/strong> (fast) or M<\/strong> (medium) \u2192 immediate acceptance and start training<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • S<\/strong> (slow) \u2192 not qualified at this time
          We guide you to preparatory exercises
          You can re-attempt for free<\/strong> in a later batch<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          7. Is one day per week really enough to learn the system and reach a good self-defense level?<\/strong>
          Yes \u2013 more than enough<\/strong>
          This is one of the strongest features of the method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Reason:
          The curriculum is built on \u201cmethodical tactical integration\u201d<\/strong> like a perfectly connected puzzle
          Every movement builds directly on the previous one
          \u2192 very rapid body reprogramming occurs
          (muscle memory + adrenaline\/fear control + adaptation to surprises)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Practical result:<\/strong>
          You can master Phase 1<\/strong> (which covers \u224895% of realistic threats)
          in approximately 6 months<\/strong> with basic training (one day\/week)
          or much faster in the accelerated \/ intensive programs<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          8. What is the nature of the AIKICHUN curriculum and what distinguishes it?<\/strong>
          AIKICHUN is a complete tactical military combat system<\/strong> designed 100% for reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Key characteristics:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \n
          • Three tactical layers
            (managing all distances + weapon handling + environmental use)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Every technique is interconnected within complete scenarios
            \u2192 accelerates learning and builds automatic combat flow<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Relies on body reprogramming
            (strong muscle memory + adrenaline & fear control + rapid adaptation)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Combines the best elements from
            Wing Chun \u2013 Aikido \u2013 BJJ \u2013 Muay Thai \u2013 Kali \u2013 Sambo \u2013 Krav Maga
            but<\/strong> in a highly organized, structured progression from zero<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Core principles:
            \u201cControl without chaos\u201d
            \u201cAdaptation to surprises\u201d
            \u201cThreat dismantling\u201d with minimal effort and maximum effect<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

            9. Is the system suitable for older ages (seniors \/ elderly)? And why?<\/strong>
            Yes \u2013 very suitable<\/strong>
            (even up to 65+ years for people with some athletic background or basic fitness)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Main reasons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              \n
            • Does NOT rely<\/strong> on high physical strength or super speed<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Relies on physics<\/strong> \u2013 timing<\/strong> \u2013 tactical control<\/strong>
              and using the opponent\u2019s force against him<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Focuses on natural body mechanics<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • automatic muscle memory building<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • psychological\/adrenaline control<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Suitable for adults from 14 years<\/strong> and up (after evaluation)
              and extends strongly to older adults who can move basically<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
