 10 Week Self Defence Course Wild Geese Martial Arts are proud to offer a cutting edge approach to Self Defence training, based on their extensive experience in Martial Arts and the Security Industry. Introduction Open any newspaper and what will you see? Most likely there is a report of somebody getting attacked, punched, kicked, stabbed, shot, raped or kidnapped. More often than not these people are involved in the criminal underbelly of society and have been specifically targeted. But then there are those that are just in the wrong place at the wrong time. A plumber fixing something gets executed by mistake. A non national dragged from his car and kicked to death while his girlfriend watches in horror. Innocent partygoers stabbed and slashed by their drunken friend. These events all happened very recently in Ireland. Any one of these people could have been you or someone that you know. Would you want to be able to stop that happening? Are you willing to become a statistic or are you willing to take action and learn skills, techniques and drills that have been tried, tested and proven by Martial Artists, Bodyguards, Doormen and Special Forces Operators the world over? Techniques and drills that use common sense as their primary weapon, simple basic human movements applied with drive and focus, moves that are natural, even under stress. While the training revolves largely around how to respond to an attack, we believe very much that prevention is better than cure. To this end course participants will receive lectures and training about avoiding and evading an attack, about raising their awareness to spot potential threats before they become actual threats. The course is laid out in a linear fashion taking students from complete beginner to competent self defence practitioner. No experience is assumed before the course, so anyone can participate and everyone will benefit from participating. As the most basic skills are practiced and perfected in the early part of the course, they will then be expected to apply them under pressure later in the course as we review techniques and learn to apply them in differing scenarios. By the end of the course each participant will be able to hit, avoid being hit and escape from grabs and holds as well as having the skills and knowledge in place to spot and act on potential threats before things get physical. Course Overview Participants in a Wild Geese Self Defence training course will learn the most effective techniques to defend themselves and those around them in the event of a physical attack. Starting with the basics of efficient movement and body mechanics we can train even the smallest and most de-conditioned individual to apply maximum force to every strike. Participants are then brought through basic, effective striking drills, defensive drills and escapes from the most common grabs and holds. As the students progress through the course there ability to perform these drills will be tested against random attacks from other members of the group. Accompanying the physical nature of the course is a series of talks covering subjects such as:
