Street Self Defense

In an ideal world we wouldn't need to defend ourselves from becoming victims of predators and criminals. Unfortunately the world is far from ideal. Criminals and predators don't fight fair, neither should you.

Our combatives programs provide you with the confidence and skills to reduce your risk of becoming a target for crime or violence. They also teach you simple, effective and combat proven ways to protect yourself and your family if the need arises.

Peace of Mind

The Ground

Level two exposes the participants to a new combat environment; the ground. The reality is that during an attack you may be knocked to the ground. The ground is a potentially dangerous environment that needs to be dealt with quickly, before weapons or a second attacker become involved.

Life is not a sparring match. If confronted your goal is not to submit your attacker but to quickly incapacitate them before they can do something to harm you. The objectives are survival and escape. Level II picks up where Level I ends and students are presented with a new set of tactical problems to solve.

Why It Works

Skill Retention: We build on past success. The combatives principles are exactly the same as in Level I.
Simplicity: What we teach is not martial arts. There are no complex locks, chokes or holds. The skills are easily acquired and mastered and require only Gross Motor Skills.
It Makes Sense: Because we use Reality Based Training, everything you learn gets tested under the physical, emotional and psychological stresses that you'd experience in an actual attack. This means you get to see first hand what does and does not work during a violent attack.

Multiple Attackers

Life isn't fair and sometimes predators and criminals travel in packs. Level III explores this tactical dilemma and teaches participants to utilize speed, aggression, positioning and environmental factors to deal with the threat. Reality Based Scenario training teaches them to function under the Adrenal Stress of the attack. (Pre-requisites Level 1 & Level II)

A New Dimension To Combat

Challange Yourself Level III Challenges students to look at the big picture. Multiple angles of attack and environmental variables will push the student to their limits mentally, physically and psychologically and test their inner drive to survive.
Confront Your Fears Incredibly empowering to see just what you are capable of when push comes to shove. We teach you that fear is a normal healthy response to a potentially life threatening problem. Then we'll show you how to use it to increase the effectiveness of your Personal Safety and Self Defense.

Weapons

Level III also examines modern weapons (knife, gun, stick) for both defensive and offensive purposes. It is important to understand the realities around armed attacks and their increased potential for lethality. We utilize the same principles for dealing with weapons as we do with any threat. Avoid them or run if you can. Close and neutralize them if you can't. Reality Based Training Scenario's provide the participants with the opportunity to do something that would never happen on the street; that is learn from their mistakes and succeed.
