The core of martial arts is being able to defend one’s self against an attacker. This is why self defense classes should have a place in every martial arts academy. Self Defense focuses around basic attacks that any untrained individual will instinctually use. These will come in the form of bear hugs, punches, and head grabs. Many martial arts are turning into sports and losing sight of their roots. Sports are great, and our youth needs them. However, sport is not self defense. The rules of sport are there to control chaos by creating guidelines to keep participants safe. Self Defense has to look at how criminals exploit rules for their benefit, and prepare to defend against such individuals. Martial arts instructors must to rememeber this to properly prepare their students.
Our self defense classes at Next Generation Martial Arts are geared for such scenarios. If you googled phrases like: self defense near me , self defense thibodaux , or self defense classes ; look no further and try Next Generation Martial Arts.
