Dark Banner saying "Self-Defence"

PROTECT YOUR HEALTH AND WELL-BEING

  WHAT IS SELF-DEFENCE?

Self-defence is a serious subject, but as this is a classroom and not the army, we are still able to have fun while learning. Even the strongest building can’t stand on a weak foundation. That is why we support each other in class. You can only learn and grow if you have a strong support system to build on.

Self-defence is a countermeasure that involves defending the health and well-being of oneself from harm.


PROTECT YOURSELF

When the adrenaline is pumping it can be hard to think clearly. This is one of the things we focus on in our teaching. We are going to teach you something that you hopefully will never use, but if you do, then we want you to be able to utilize this skill set with ease. That is why we have created a course specifically to prepare you in the event of an attempted assault.


SELF-DEFENCE EDUCATION

Self-defence applications are taught based on their effectiveness and optimized towards real world situations. 

Self-awareness and avoiding potentially dangerous situations are key components of self-defence. Mental self-defence is the ability to get into the proper mindset to execute a physical self-defence technique while utilizing a method that is acceptable under Canadian Law.

Come and meet like-minded individuals, engage with other members of your community, and have some fun!


If you have any questions about the self-defence classes we provide the people of Orangeville and Dufferin County, then please feel free to contact us. We'd love to hear from you!
