We’re pretty biased. we believe self-defense is one of the most important skills in the world. And after reading this article, we hope you’ll agree with us! Read more to find out the 4 best reasons to take self-defense classes.

 

    You Never Know What Will Happen

    Let’s face it! After the biggest pandemic of our lifetimes, it’s clear that we have far less control than we think! Normal life can be disrupted at any time by anything. Unfortunately, it’s just impossible to guarantee that you’ll pass each day safely and without threat.

    This isn’t something to think too far into or a reason to stop you from leaving the house, but it’s necessary to reflect on from time to time, especially when you’re considering self-defense classes. We like to tell our students in our self-defense classes that self-defense is the one thing you don’t want to have to use- but if you need it, you’ll want to make sure you’ve got it.

    Our martial arts classes prepare everyone of all ages to handle an attack and protect themselves and their loved ones from harm, and we’re proud to be able to teach our students how to handle anything life throws their way.

     

    Keep Yourself Safe

    The ability to keep yourself safe with self-defense is critical to feeling empowered and confident in any situation. We’re not saying you should walk down dark alleys alone or purposefully put yourself in harm’s way but if you find yourself in a compromising situation and need to fight back, self-defense is absolutely essential.

    We like to teach smart self-defense classes- physical self-defense combined with mental awareness and education on how to avoid a fight in the first place. All of our students learn how to de-escalate conflicts and avoid them, but if an altercation gets physical, again, you’d probably rather have self-defense training than not. The mental elements and physical elements of our martial arts classes combined help you maintain physical safety and psychological awareness of threats or danger.

     

    Protect Your Loved Ones

    In this world, most parents want to make sure their kids know how to defend themselves. Especially in the unfortunate world we live in, women and daughters are more likely to be attacked, so parents want to make sure their daughters especially know how to keep themselves safe. It’s one thing to protect yourself. It’s another entirely to protect those you love.

    There would be nothing more heartbreaking than feeling like you could have done more if your loved one was attacked or got into a fight in your presence. It’s also critical to pass down self-defense education to your children, partners, loved ones, and community members so they can keep themselves and their family members safe if anything should happen when you’re not there to protect them. That’s why we run martial arts classes.

    We want to educate the community and keep everyone as safe as possible, and self-defense is the best way to do it. It’s also totally probable that teaching your kids, siblings, cousins, and neighbors your new self-defense moves will inspire them to learn too!

     

    Get Fit In A Purposeful Way

    Students who take self-defense classes feel more confident and capable in their bodies in public, especially women. Confidence here could mean aesthetic confidence, as self-defense classes do help you work up a sweat with regular practice, but it also means feeling safe and secure existing in a physical space where threats or attackers can come from anywhere at any time (again- you never know what will happen). Not only that but you’re working out and moving your body, but in a way that is purposeful, so you feel even more accomplished after every class.

    Training until it’s all muscle memory in our martial arts classes is a wonderful exercise in self-discipline, and understanding the importance of these skills you’re learning is so fulfilling. This is especially true for our female students, who tend to feel better being in public after they’ve learned self-defense and its benefits.

    What do you think- ready to join self-defense classes yet? 😉 It really is critical, and we do believe it’s one of the most important skills we can teach to our community. We hope that now you understand that the best reasons to learn self-defense go beyond just physical safety. When you learn self-defense, you’re empowering yourself and those around you to live safer lives! Check out our life-saving self-defense classes right here at our school!
