Self Defense
Our society is becoming more violent.  A sad statement, but true.
Our news medium give us daily accounts of violent attacks of a
personal nature.  F.B.I. statistics show that one out of every ten
U.S. citizens will encounter some form of personal violence at least
once in their lifetime!  Home invasions, car-jacking, street muggings,
domestic violence and the most common personal violence situation...
date rape ( statistics show, most violent attacks are by someone the
victim knows. )  If you travel, show real estate, etc. or if you are a student
who plans to attend a university in a larger metropolitan area, you should
consider participating in our specialized personal defense programs.
We can tailor our programs to meet the needs and schedules of
individuals and groups.  Schedule one class or several....or periodic
follow-up classes, if you feel the need to refresh or expand your self
defense skills.
In our basic class we will teach you defense skills against some of the
most common grabs and attacks, how to strike and kick properly without
injury to yourself and the most effective pressure point and nerve center
attacks you can inflict on your attacker.  You do not need any experience
in martial arts or even a moderate level of flexibility to participate in this class.

But, consider this:  in a short term self defense class, you can only learn
a few techniques or even "tricks" for protection.  The difficult aspect to
cultivate is a state of mind, an attitude of confidence and commitment.
This often is difficult to achieve in short term self defense classes.
If you work in a situation that exposes you to potential personal risk situations,
or if you are a student moving to a larger metropolitan area or even a young
person concerned with handling bully situations, you should consider a
longer term class situation, perhaps a summer martial arts program or even
a year or two of intensive martial arts study.  You will benefit just from the
fitness aspect of training,
plus the confidence you will gain in knowing you are prepared for any
situation you may confront. We have trained security and law enforcement
personnel as well as hundreds of individuals.

Head Instructor Alan LaCross has worked in Executive Protection, security
