Gain the necessary skills in the must-have 3 components of self-defense – Psychological, Preventative and Physical

What you’ll learn
Self-defense is much bigger than just physical skills. Learn the full cycle of the self-defense continuum.
Most self-defense courses rely on conscious skill recall, which can fail under stress. We teach in ways that build unconscious competencies for reliable use.
We provide a library of physical skills that won’t overwhelm and are adaptable to all self-defense situations.
Psychological Preparation – Learn how to increase mental awareness and observation abilities to increase situational awareness capabilities
Psychological Preparation – Learn how to better manage emotional reactions to a violent encounter so you can focus on your defense
Psychological Preparation – Learn how increase performance and decrease emotional/shock impact through visualization

Preventative Preparation – Learn to be constantly situationally aware of your surroundings to reduce chances of facing violence
Preventative Preparation – Learn how to verbally de-escalate a potentially violent person
Physical Preparation – Learn an array of strikes and techniques that are foundational to the rest of the physical continuum component
Physical Preparation – Learn a series of striking sequences designed for the 3 most common fighting distances
Physical Preparation – Learn how to effectively and quickly defend yourself in a ground fight and quickly so you can get back on your feet
After Action: Discuss the importance of mental and emotional care after facing a violent encounter
Post Course: Skills taught in ANY course are perishable and will atrophy without regular practice. Use a proven maintenance program to keep sharp.
Requirements
No self-defense experience necessary. At the end of the 2nd component and throughout the 3rd component, you will need a partner to work with. Although it will be beneficial if your partner is also a student of the course, it’s not required. You will need a 5’x5′ or larger space for the physical component. You will will need to purchase a few striking pads for the physical component. They are relatively inexpensive and can be found at many offline and online retailers.
Description
This course is based on what we call the self-defense continuum, which includes a spectrum of non-physical and physical skills to be effective as a self-defender and includes 3 primary course components. Unlike what many think, good self-defense is far broader than just physical skills. The program starts with understanding that the ability to defend yourself in a violent situation must be an unconscious competency, or what is commonly known as muscle memory. You don’t have the time to consciously react to random violence; it must automatically happen, much like removing your hand from a burning stove. Because of this need and the understanding that skills learned in all courses are perishable without regular use, this course is taught in a manner that takes skills usually taught in a manner requiring conscious recall and enables you to turn them into unconscious competencies. In other words, you’ll be able to manage your psychological reactions to violence and deploy physical actions automatically and immediately.The first course component gives you the tools necessary to: Be clear mindedIncrease your mental awareness/focus capabilitiesBe relatively calm in a high-stress environmentIncrease performance and reduce the impact of the emotional shock reaction to violenceThe second course component in the continuum is about learning the array of non-physical skills necessary to avoid a physical altercation. These skills include: Good prevention measuresSituational awarenessVerbal de-escalation skills. The third course component of the continuum is the physical component. The foundation of this third component comes from Okinawan karate, which is designed and taught for civilian self-defense. This component includes:Learning a library of flexible strikes and techniques designed to be applied to all self-defense situations Taking the skills from learning this library will be used in learning a series of fighting sequences that address the three major fighting distances, including the ground.
