OUR APPROACH TO PERSONAL SAFETY AND SELF-DEFENSE TRAINING IS THREE-PART:  LEARN TO IDENTIFY THE SIGNS AND SIGNALS OF A POTENTIALLY THREATENING SITUATION TO AVOID THEM; HOW TO MODIFY EXISTING BEHAVIORS AND HABITS TO MAKE YOU LESS OF A POTENTIAL TARGET; AND LEARN LEVERAGED-BASED TECHNIQUES THAT ALLOW YOU TO DEFEND YOURSELF EFFECTIVELY REGARDLESS OF THE SIZE AND STRENGTH OF THE ATTACKER.  

OUR DEFENSE TECHNIQUES WILL FOCUS ON BOTH STRIKING AND GRAPPLING TECHNIQUES FOR STANDING AND GROUND SITUATIONS - AS MOST ATTACKERS WILL ATTEMPT TO GET THE VICTIM TO THE GROUND IN THE MAJORITY OF CASES.  OUR CLASSES WILL PUT YOU IN REAL-LIFE SITUATIONS SO YOU CAN TRAIN YOURSELF TO THINK AND REACT QUICKLY.  THE AIM IS TO GAIN CONFIDENCE IN YOURSELF AND YOUR ABILITIES TO IDENTIFY, AVOID AND PROTECT YOURSELF AGAINST A DANGEROUS ASSAILANT
