• IS THIS A FORMAL MARTIAL ARTS COURSE?

NO, THIS WORKSHOP IS SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED TO ADDRESS REAL-LIFE SITUATIONS. OUR COURSE CONTENT IS BASED ON EXTENSIVE RESEARCH INTO REAL-WORLD SAFETY CONCERNS AND COMMON ATTACK PATTERNS. WHILE MARTIAL ARTS PROVIDE VALUABLE TECHNIQUES FOR OFFENSE AND DEFENSE, FORMAL TRAINING REQUIRES YEARS OF DEDICATION AND PRACTICE. HOWEVER, ONE DOES NOT NEED FORMAL MARTIAL ARTS TRAINING TO DEFEND THEMSELVES IN A LIFE-THREATENING SITUATION. THIS WORKSHOP FOCUSES ON PRACTICAL, EFFECTIVE, AND EASY-TO-REMEMBER STREET SELF-DEFENSE TECHNIQUES RATHER THAN TRADITIONAL MARTIAL ARTS TRAINING.

• DO YOU TRAIN BOTH MEN AND WOMEN?

YES, WE TRAIN BOTH MEN AND WOMEN TOGETHER. HOWEVER, UPON REQUEST, WE CAN CONDUCT SEPARATE SESSIONS FOR EACH GROUP IF NEEDED. IT IS RECOMMENDED TO HAVE AN EQUAL NUMBER OF MEN AND WOMEN IN THE WORKSHOP OR CLASS TO ENSURE SUITABLE TRAINING PARTNERS FOR PRACTICING THE TECHNIQUES EFFECTIVELY.

• CAN THE WORKSHOP HAPPEN IN MY COMPANY, MY TIME?

YES. WE WILL COME IN AND TEACH AT YOUR COMPANY. THE WORKSHOPS ARE USUALLY RUN DURING OFFICE HOURS. WE ARE FLEXIBLE SO AS TO ACCOMMODATE THE MOST SUITABLE TIME FOR YOUR EMPLOYEES.

• DOES THE COMPANY NEED TO PROVIDE ANY EQUIPMENT?

AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE WORKSHOP IS A POWERPOINT PRESENTATION INVOLVING A DISCUSSION AND A MYTH BUSTING SESSION ON SAFETY AND PRACTICAL SELF DEFENSE FOR WHICH THE COMPANY HAS TO ARRANGE FOR A LCD PROJECTOR AND SCREEN AND A COLLAR MICROPHONE IN CASE OF LARGE NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS. WE WILL BRING ALL THE OTHER NECESSARY EQUIPMENT AND PROPS.

• IS THERE A MIN & MAX NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS FOR THE SESSION?

THERE IS NO MINIMUM NUMBER. HOWEVER, THE IDEAL SIZE OF THE BATCH FOR EFFECTIVE TRAINING WOULD BE ABOUT 30-50. IT IS ADVISABLE TO HAVE DO MULTIPLE SESSIONS FOR LARGER GROUPS.

• DO I HAVE TO BE PHYSICALLY FIT TO ATTEND THE WORKSHOP?

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE FIT, MUSCULAR OR ATHLETIC FOR THIS WORKSHOP. THIS SELF-DEFENSE WORKSHOP FOCUSSES ON LEARNING LIFE SAVING SKILLS AND NOT A MARTIAL ARTS CLASS.

• HOW MANY WORKSHOP LEVELS ARE THERE?

THE INITIAL WORKSHOP FOCUSES ON GENERAL SAFETY AWARENESS AND REINFORCING GOOD PERSONAL SAFETY HABITS. PARTICIPANTS ARE ENCOURAGED TO SHARE THEIR VIEWS, EXPERIENCES, AND CONCERNS, MAKING THE SESSIONS HIGHLY INTERACTIVE AND SCENARIO-BASED RATHER THAN LECTURE-STYLE. THE WORKSHOP INTRODUCES PRACTICAL SELF-DEFENSE TECHNIQUES AND TOOLS, MANY OF WHICH PARTICIPANTS MAY NOT HAVE ENCOUNTERED BEFORE. EACH TECHNIQUE IS TAUGHT THROUGH PARTNER-BASED TRAINING, ALLOWING PARTICIPANTS TO LEARN AND APPLY THEM EFFECTIVELY. ONCE A SET OF TECHNIQUES IS COVERED, THEY ARE COMBINED AND PRACTICED IN SIMULATED REAL-LIFE ATTACK SCENARIOS, ENSURING THAT EACH PARTICIPANT CAN APPLY WHAT THEY HAVE LEARNED TO ESCAPE A GIVEN SITUATION.

• ADVANCED LEVELS

AFTER COMPLETING THE INITIAL WORKSHOP, PARTICIPANTS CAN PROGRESS TO ADVANCED LEVELS THAT REINFORCE THE FOUNDATIONAL TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES LEARNED IN THE EARLIER SESSIONS. THESE ADVANCED SESSIONS INTRODUCE AWARENESS AND PHYSICAL SKILLS FOR HANDLING SITUATIONS SUCH AS KNIFE DEFENSE, BEAR HUGS, AND CHOKES. THE FOCUS IS ON BUILDING CONFIDENCE IN APPLYING ALL TECHNIQUES EFFECTIVELY WHILE DEVELOPING THE ABILITY TO RESPOND TO BOTH VERBAL AND PHYSICAL AGGRESSION. AS TRAINING PROGRESSES, PARTICIPANTS ARE INTRODUCED TO KICKS, PUNCHES, THROWS, AND REAL-TIME FREE SPARRING TECHNIQUES. OF COURSE, MASTERING THESE SKILLS REQUIRES DEDICATION, HARD WORK, AND CONSISTENT PRACTICE.
