Self Defence Courses

Stat: In cases of sexual assault, 75% of the time the two parties have some sort of prior association-50% of the attackers are a current partner or close friend.

It's not all bad news though! Research conclusively shows that if you try a variety of different strategies and fight back during the assault, you will psychologically recover much much quicker than if you hadn't! So why wouldn't you do one of our courses then? 

Self defence courses are offered in two main formats:

 

Domestic self defence course:

These 6 hour long self defence courses are available for the general public to attend and are usually run over 3 nights for 2 hours at a time at a venue of our determination. There is a minimum age requirement of 13 years old. The course is a mix of theory and practical application and there is no real fitness requirement as we will guide you through all stages. We do however recommend it is best suited for those with complete mobility.

Content that is covered includes;

  • Rules of self defence
  • How to avoid the freeze factor
  • Preventative measures to confrontation
  • Stand up striking
  • Counters to chokes, holds and grabs
  • Ground defence
  • Padded assailant training

 

Every participant has the opportunity to purchase a hard copy of the First Line Self Defence safety manual at a discounted rate. It details in depth all the content that is covered including full colour photos and instruction of all techniques used, plus a wide range of safety tips and strategies.
