It's foremost goal is to educate in the realms of martial / warrior arts, defensive tactics for law enforcement and combat based professions, survivalist training, firearms for combat professions and self defense, fitness, philosophy, and history. Teaching and spreading TRUE African history and warrior culture is a large part of the HCW-CAUCA.

HCW - CAUCA The Hacomtaewresdo Combat Arts & Urban Combatives Association (HCW-CAUCA) is a school of warrior training focusing on what we term "Urban Combatives" or training for fighting / combat in an urban enviornment. This pertains to the mental skills, science, and concepts to the physical empty hand skills and incorporation of weapons (martila arts based to firearms). The Hacomtaewresdo Warrior Arts ( Way of the Ultimate Warrior ) are integrated systems of martial arts comming from skill set of founder Headamster Abraham Hardy, passed down through the fighting tradition of his family, in combination with formal learning, hands on self defensive experience, and training gained in private law enforcement. The Way of The Ultimate Warrior What makes these systems and sciences "war" arts is that their goal is street self defense and functional combatives, as well as self cultivation to unify the mind, body, and spirit. The HCW Arts are not based on or around fighting style(s) but rather combat science and concepts. New concepts and knowledge of other systems is always incorporated, but not in haphazard or non progressive fashion. It is done in a progressive manner of which anything new is filtered through our overall general concepts (foundation) and placed into it's proper category. If it does not fit, it is not incorporated. Physical techniques are incorporated by classification of fighting method, then range. Fighting methods in the HCW arts are Hybrid style (some call mixed martial arts),Self Defense, Kickboxing, Shoot / Submission style fighting, and law enforcement style Defensive tactics and combatives.This makes sense being that these systems development was fostered in fighting in / for an urban enviornment. Fighting is approached in totality, with each system focusing on a different fighting type, and each fighting type delving into each possible range of combat. The ranges taught in the HCW arts are striking (long, mid and close range), trrapping (close quarter hand to hand), clinch fighting, standing grappling, and groundfighting. Weapons cover some traditional martial arts weapons with skills that can be applied to makeshift weapons, as well as firearms and close quarter weapons combatives. Once new techniques and concepts are filtered through this system, they are broken down and infused with current techniques and concepts. This enhances and updates existing techniques as it progressively intergrates new ones. in further martial componets,survival style training is studied as sirfival in worst casr scenarios is more successful if you are prepared , and that preperation starts with the right knowledge. Hardy Combat fitness System Fitness is incorporated as a very important facet because it not only builds a strong, healthy body and enhances warrior skills, but it is good for you period.Good fitness brings too many benifits to be ignored. From Shaka Zulu and the Zulu Impi warriors of South Africa to Alexander the great and the Greek soliders, warriors of ancient times who trained for combat, included some form fitness as a componet of warrior another componet of research, study and training. This goes far beyond simply martial arts and into many various realms. In non combative aspects, fitness, strength and conditioning is covered. The warrior sees the body as a temple and fitness as a way of maintainning this temple. Fitness for the HCW arts comes from the Hardy Combat Fitness System which is a fitness system Headmaster Hardy invented for martial artists and combat atheletes.With experience as a group excercize instructor and personal trainer, Headmaster Hardy also has a thorough background in fitness and nutrition and is reglarly updated. Universal Belief & Warrior Philosophy System
Next, is warrior philosophy comming from the Universal Belief and Warrior Philosophy System of which Headmaster Hardy founded. It is a important facet because it teaches correct tenets, attiude, mindset, spirit, and knowledge which leads to wisdom and enlightenment. It teaches how a true warrior should strive to carry themself and also takes their physical skills to a level that cannot be reached through physical effort alone. Warrior History & Culture Lastly is knowledge of warrior philosophy and culture. In better understanding the warriors and cultures that came before us, their battles, and skills, we can unlock that power within ourselves. We also learn RESPECT for them by this study, as it is imparted cause we follow the methods they laid forth. All these facets cover mind, body, and spirit. When you bring these three things together ( the triangle of power ) you reach the highest level of being and the height of warriorhood.
