Applying self defense techniques taught globally right here in TC.
Self Defense means different things to different people. Seek out a qualified Instructor and sit down to discuss your goals and options. NEVER sign a contract on the first visit…
There are many options available to you, and many reasons people seek the martial arts. FADS, SPORT, SELF DEFENSE, LIFE GOALS, etc. You will not find ONE that will be an expert at all of the above. So, What do you want? Not Sure… Call me and set up an appointment. With my 40 + years experience I will help you make the right choice, Even if that choice is not me. Locally there are 2 other schools I trust will treat you right. They are more of the sport and fad types but the people are top notch. If you live outside our area, I can help you find a trusted and qualified mentor if you need. I have many friends around the world who are masters in their field. If I don’t know them, someone I know, will. 🙂
