Even though this is a serious topic we attempt to keep the training upbeat, fun, energetic and friendly. We encourage you to make new friends and utilize these friendships to continue to practice your skills well after you have taken the course(s).
The system is designed so that the set of principles which are the fundamentals of every technique apply to the most common types of attacks/scenarios. It is because of this approach that trainees reach a high level of mental and technical proficiency in a relatively short time.
MODULE 1:
Throughout these modules you will be learning mentalities, footwork, objectives, striking points, deescalation and more.
Additionally: You will learn many different types of strikes and striking points from long range, medium range and close range. We will also be covering a vast number of open hand defenses.
It is in our teachings to be discrete with our skills and not provoke others. We must be humble enough so that ego does not want to show them that we are better than them; this is one of the most necessary things for students to learn. We should develop skills so if a situation accelerates in a negative direction, we have the ability to swiftly dissolve the threat. First and foremost, we should attempt to avoid or deescalate a potential violent situation whenever possible. If it is unavoidable, respond only with the necessary amount of force to neutralize the attack.
As you advance through the levels, you will learn:
- Prevention, avoidance, escape and evasion.
- Dealing with throws and falls to all directions and angles.
- Attacks and counterattacks, performed to all targets, distances, ranges, heights, angles, directions and in all rhythms; executed from all positions and postures; using any available common object for defensive purposes.
- Defending all unarmed attacks: punches, strikes and kicks. Releases from the most common types of grabs and holds.
- Dealing with the above attacks when sent from all possible directions and places; When performed by a single or multiple attackers; When occurring in all places, positions and postures, (while standing, on the move, sitting down, laying down on the back, side or facing down)
These seminars are designed to be learned in sequential order for optimum learning but not required.
