For every new student you start out with the beginner class.  We want to you to walk away from the class with some basic tools that will prevent your from being attacked or get you away safely in the event of an attack.

After taking this class you are eligible for the advanced class and some other add on classes as well which are detailed below.  

This class is fun!!  The intensity level is low to medium.  

If you have taken the Beginner Class and you want to learn more.  I encourage you to come back and take the Advanced Self Defense Class.  

This class takes the elements we learned in the first class and we put them together.  So where we practice single contact attacks in the beginner class, this one will have your attacker continuing to attack in different ways.

I am always so happy to see that returning students remember the content from the first class and can kick some butt in this one.

At the end of the beginner class we gave an example of ground work, we will review this and teach this technique to you as well.   

The intensity level in this class is high, but we will make sure to adjust to your comfort and ability levels.

These can be held at the Blackport Building (studio fee applies) or a location of your choosing.

If you have taken the Beginner Class & the Advanced Class 

Consider scheduling a Sexual Assult Prevention Class

These can be held at the Blackport Building (studio fee applies) or a location of your choosing. 

This class is not quite as intense as the Advanced Class but it is a more sensitive subject matter, so only those 18 and older can attend.  

I often get the question...

 "What if they have a weapon?" 

This is more advanced than I can teach in my beginner class content so I offer it as a stand alone class.

I do require that you have taken the beginner class prior and that students are 16 years or older.  Any minor between 16-18 must have parental consent to be taught this content

There are a lot of different self defense tools on the market.  Although I would never deter someone from using something that they feel makes them safer, I have some pros & cons for them all.  

I also have a recommendation for one of them - the Kubaton which is what we will focus the majority of our training with.

I will have Kubatons available to purchase (not required)
