Each summer our Masters Certification Program often referred to as the “GuruKiller” offers a select group of 10 students the opportunity to spend 1 month with Cameron & Melayne living the Budokon life at the Budokon Big Sky Retreat in Whitefish Montana. With no light, noise, or air pollution this unique group of hand selected students should expect a massive detox from city life. For 30 days (including arrival and departure days) you will study the science, philosophy and art that is Budokon Mixed Movement & Living Arts.

This is by far our most streamlined and economical offer for Budokon Professional Coaching training. It is a 30 day training course combining 5 individual certification programs into one time frame reducing the cost of travel and single course work by $5-7 thousand dollars if done over time individually.

BDK Yoga

• Understand the foundations of circular sequencing, intelligent transitions, and continuous movement through the BDK Yoga Primary Series.

• Study the original Yoga / Martial Arts hybrid style developed for martial arts precision. Refine your relationship to structure, stability, directional awareness, and control within yogic movement.

• Learn the only yoga style that expands your understanding of mobility through crawling patterns and integrated movement sequences that challenge strength, agility, and athleticism.

BDK Mobility

• Over 30 distinctive patterns that develop advanced mobility, strength, and control within martial applications.

• Integration of these patterns into martial arts.

• Coordination, balance, and agility built through transitional flow and locomotion patterns.

BDK Athletics

• Sprinting & acceleration mechanics

• Leaping, bounding, and jumping progressions

• Calisthenics and bodyweight strength training

• Plyometric conditioning for explosive power

• Throwing and catching mechanics for coordination and rhythm

The BDK Combat Matrix

• Jiu-Jitsu, Kickboxing, and Wrestling fundamentals

• Striking, grappling, and transition flow work

• Movement integration for real-world athletic application

Mind-Body Optimization

• Nutrition for high-performance living

• Mental performance and mindset coaching

• Breathwork, focus, and recovery protocols

Biomechanics and Functional Anatomy.

• Joint structure and classification: synovial joints, degrees of freedom, and why each joint is built for a specific job

• Planes and axes of motion: sagittal, frontal, and transverse, and how real movement crosses all three

• Open-chain versus closed-chain mechanics, and when each shows up in striking, grappling, and locomotion

• Force production and absorption: concentric, eccentric, and isometric contraction, and why eccentric control protects joints under load

• Length-tension and force-velocity relationships, and how they change available strength at different joint angles

• Lever systems and moment arms: why a small shift in limb position changes the demand on a joint

• Ground reaction force, center of mass, and base of support as the basis of balance and power transfer

• Kinetic chain sequencing: proximal-to-distal force transfer from feet through hips, trunk, and limbs

• Fascial lines and myofascial continuity, and how tension in one region shows up somewhere else

• Knee and ankle mechanics under athletic load, including valgus and varus stress and foot tripod stability

• Breathing mechanics and the diaphragm’s role in bracing, recovery, and positional control

• Common compensation patterns and how restricted range in one joint forces another joint to do work it was not built for

You also qualify for all programing if you are an inspired practitioner. You do not need a license or a teaching certificate or be pursuing one. You only need a serious practice and a clear reason to study for self development.

Our SINGULAR 100HR courses is a one-week in-person training camp. The camp prepares you for the final video and written exams of that specific curriculum, which you complete after camp, while also exposing you to the full Budokon Mixed Movement Arts system.
