Self defence courses
Short courses focused on practical, realistic self defence rather than competition technique.
Our self defence courses run as standalone blocks, usually six weeks, aimed at people who want practical skills without committing to a full martial arts grading pathway. Sessions focus on awareness, avoiding physical confrontation and a small number of techniques that work under real pressure rather than a long list to memorise.
We run courses for general groups as well as sessions tailored to specific requests, including workplaces and community groups. Instructors keep the pace realistic for complete beginners and never assume any prior fitness or experience.
Most participants who complete a course either stop there with a genuine improvement in confidence or go on to join our regular adult classes having got a taste for training. Courses are run in small groups so instructors can give proper individual attention.
