Womans Self Defence

Featured Replies

hello ladies

Soon I will be in beautiful thailand. I will starting up some ladies self defence classes in central bangkok.

I will be teaching highly effective and hardcore western sylabus's.

The training may not be always pleasant as my main goal is to get you to avoid, rather than handle a possible threat.

Students will face stress induced scenarios. There will be plenty of shouting and screaming, and maybe some tears, but I promise you, you will certainly upgrade you abilty to defend yourself- and your loved one's.

The training will include ( but not be limited to)

empty hand and weapons

how to spot a sexual offender

anti-surveillance

stress management

A few facts to leave you with ( sad, but true)

1- 1 in 4 ladies will be attacked over a lifetime( makes me almost ashamed to be a man)

2- studies almost but prove how a lady with even the minimum of training greatly improves her chances of survival

3- karate, taekwondo, muaythai, judo, aikido are NOT martail arts.

They are almost useless for a lady to use in a real self defence situation, and will do little more than aggravate an attacker, thus placing her in more danger.

4- the average serial killer has an above average IQ and may spend a long time 'interveiwing' his victim, thus making her chances of survival very bad

5- today you most probably walked past both a rapist and a serial killer!

6- 90%- 95% of you would not stand a snowball's chance in hel_l if he was on your case!

Lets try and change that.

Stay safe

SD

Thank you StraightDave

I have forwarded your post to my friend who has a psychotic husband she can't get rid of. She's just started a karate course together with her two little daughters and together they hope to keep things under control when he goes round their house and loses it.

As for me, I have always wanted to do a self-defense course like yours but at the moment my shoulder is still recovering from an post accident operation. Maybe later. How much do you charge?

Ive closed the other topic you started on the same, and adjusted the title to this one to reflect your indication that this is a free public service.

for that reason and the importance of such classes, Im letting this topic run.

(as you must understand - we wouldnt be able to allow a similar venture of commercial nature on the forum)

cheers

Hi SD,

are you then going to be based/staying in Bangkok only? Sorry, just want to confirm.

Would you consider doing a free workshop in Chiang Mai if you were up on a visit?

If you think you will come up this way, then please let the local English Lang newspapers know (or, im happy to do that for you..even putting out leaflets if you like). (Oh, and even in Thai, if you will be having a translator on hand!). Would be good to know a bit in advance to get people aware of it.

Sounds wonderful! Thank you so much for doing something so positive.

:)

Aikido is a great martial art! far the best self defence for ladies but of course it takes training. We train with knives, guns... Ladies in my class are taking down guys twice their size.

Sorry to invade this topic, had to defend my aikido :)

Anyway, there should be more self defence classes for ladies, as long as it works. Keep it up!
