Cost: $35 per person
For ages 7 and up. *All children should be accompanied by an adult*

Give us 2 hours and we will teach you how to defend yourself.  It is one of the easiest to learn and most effective self-defense systems that you will find anywhere.  The techniques that we teach will stop an attacker immediately.  They are easy to learn and use, don’t require constant practice or years of training to master, and they will work regardless of your age; size; strength; gender; speed; skill; physical ability or disabilities.  You will work with a partner to learn the techniques taught in our class which include defenses against armed and unarmed attackers; single/multiple attackers; standing, sitting and ground techniques; and rape defense/prevention.  You will learn how to anticipate and avoid potentially dangerous situations and how to defend yourself from a physical attack including: grabs, punches, chokes, bear hugs, headlocks, kicks, knives, guns and more from a much larger and stronger attacker.
