My friend and I had 3 self defence sessions which was an amazing experience. Within the short amount of time Lee taught us some basic but powerful and really effective skills defending ourselves. He was a great teacher who made us feel really comfortable and excited for the next session. Thank you!!!!

WHAT WILL I LEARN?

Grappling

Whilst we try and avoid getting close enough to be grabbed, unfortunately grappling plays a major part in many violent confrontations.
Understanding the clinch, takedowns and stand up grappling, mean that when it happens we have solutions.

Knife Defence

We train weapons that have real life relevance, essentially sticks and knives.

Taken from Kali and Krav Maga we look at how to use weapons and if there is no other option, how to defend against weapons, and yes we know running is a good idea!.

Ground Fighting

The ground is not your friend, so understanding how to get up from it, even with a large opponent sat on you is vital to self defence knowledge and training.

Elements of BJJ, Judo and wrestling are used to help avoid this awful place in a fight.

Multiple Attacker Defence

We practice sparring with 1 against 2 or 1 against 3 to develop our peripheral vision, reactions and our footwork and movement.

This is high adrenaline stuff and really sharpens your focus, essential training for street self defence.
