"You have confused the sky with stars reflected at night on the surface of a pond" - a quote by Vilgefortz from Roggeveen from Andrzej Sapkowski's "Time of Contempt" rang loudly in my head during my first personal training with Artur. Definitely the best swordsman I have ever sparred with and learned from.
I bow to the titanic work that Artur put into creating his skills and I recommend all the classes he conducts, regardless of the discipline of melee combat you practice.

I participated in personal training with Arur dedicated to the use of a knife. A few-hour training (I might as well call it workshop) turned out to be very rich, with content illustrated with many examples of practical use. Artur is a great professional who is 100% committed to what he does. He conveys messages in a simple and understandable way. His proprietary solutions are substantively justified, and most importantly, effective in "fighting" with a knife. I recommend Artur as a high-class professional who is constantly improving.

I highly recommend a group knife course, and above all INDIVIDUAL CLASSES with Artur.
Artur is passionate and loves what he does. He conveys his knowledge in a communicative and accessible way, not only in the subject of fighting with a knife, stick, etc., but also teaches behavior and broadly understood defense on the "street". He is pedantically prepared for each class and adjusts them to a specific person and their abilities. It combines theory with practical skills to gain an advantage in critical situations.
In addition to being an excellent teacher and a world-class sportsman (with many genuine successes), he is just a nice, sympathetic and witty guy.
I recommend with all my heart !!!!!!

It's been a long time since I've been to such a fascinating training and so well prepared in terms of content and practicality.
I feel very satisfied and want more.
Artur, you are a master of masters in the subject of a knife, and your several years of experience make you an authority in this field. Way to go.

It was a hard and busy Saturday, a large dose of theoretical and practical knowledge and exchange of experiences. Really strong group and the hosts Damian Laszuk and Artur Bednarek showed and dispelled many doubts, teaching ourselves and the people who attack us. Fortunately, the "DEFENSIVE USE OF THE KNIFE" training ended only with bruises, minor injuries and large soreness. Thanks again.

I was entering the training full of fears, but now afterwards I'm really looking forward to the next training. For several years I gathered myself to start training regularly and, above all, to confront what I was learning with someone who trains professionally. It was a really great experience :)

I'm over 50, I weigh over 100. Thanks to Artur's training and learning strategies and "good manners", I managed to stand on the podium three times in knife fighting competitions, including the Polish vice-championship in the Philippines, within two years. Just like in stick fighting, the championship of Poland thanks to simple tips and sticking to the strategy developed by Artur.
Today in AL 'ASAD SELFDEFENSE ACADEMY turbo valuable tips - I was there and I do not regret it. There is more and more going on on the club. Artur Bednarek - fighting and knife throwing - a man worth recommending. Substantially and interesting.

Excellent knife defense training! 6 hours of a seminar with experts on the use of a knife at all distances. Learning that everything can be a weapon - those who were will remember the flying chair :) (Reference from the Defensive Knife Use training co-led by Artur Badnarek and Damian Laszuk).

A lot of knowledge and very expertly conducted classes. As soon as I have the opportunity, I will be back.
Artur is a great passionate of weapon fighting. It is difficult for me to imagine a person with more experience and competence to learn real, defensive knife combat (i.e. when we strive to minimize losses on both sides of the conflict). Artur approaches his self-defense trainings comprehensively - he teaches not only what to do when it comes to physical violence, but also how to behave earlier. For an inexperienced person "in street life", it completely changes the perspective. Although Arthur is one of the most calm and empathetic people I have met, he can simulate an attack without exposing the student to loss of health. Thanks to his help, I feel much more in control of potentially dangerous situations. I highly recommend Artur!
