View this email in your browser New courses, new material, better training We have  integrated some great ideas and reworked all of our introductory self-defense drills from the ground up to provide an improved, streamlined training experience.  We have integrating a default, compressed cover into our beginner drills that provides more flexibility with dealing with different types of ambush attacks that works particularly well against rapid, repeated punches. Our new training platform is layered such that beginners are safely exposed to stress, pressure, and impact in a safe environment, while the more advanced participants are able to flow into more advanced variations of each drill.     Thurs Feb 19- New!  Striking and targeting for street defense  Learn and refine: palm strikes, hammer fists, elbows, knees, kicks, face-ripping and other concepts.   Pad drills, partner drills, & flowing drills Putting the strikes into context: drills for improving targeting with the concepts practiced   Sunday Feb 22- 2-hour women's self defense seminar  Becoming less of a target, improving awareness, understanding intuition and instincts Learn how to assert yourself using Ask-Tell-Make for dealing with unwanted encroachment Simple, safe drills to prepare you for the stress, pressure, and impact of violent attacks   4-session condensed self-defense course: small group training                                              women's session: limited to 5 students                                              men's session: limited to 5 students The first session will be a 90 mins and includes a mindset discussion. The remaining time we will introduce personal defense drills and striking. Sessions 2-4 will be primarily physical in nature: defending ambush attacks, striking, flowing through targeting, and other concepts.  We will split the group such that the men & women train at different times. Maximum of 5 men and 5 women registered, so there will be a LOT of hands-on time with our lead instructor, Evan.  The quality of training for this course will be more like that of a private lesson.
