Our Vancouver self defense study and training develops the qualities of movement that will help you to project a powerful demeanor and prevent you from being selected as a victim. If you have been formerly bullied or victimized, taking up self defense will stop these incidents in your life.
Thats because proper self defense training builds skill and fitness, along with improved posture and self-confidence since 80% of what you communicate is non-verbal. Therefore, self defense reduces your risk of assault since your body movement communicates that you are powerful. By taking self defense training, you learn to increase your body awareness to the factors that contribute to being a target. Self defense also reduces the likelihood of having to defend yourself as you will learn how to deal with confrontational situations by asserting yourself appropriately and by developing tools to deal with them.
Stress response experts say that you can only recall about five different self defense techniques when you experience an adrenaline rush during an assault. Most of your cognitive thinking is unavailable to you when your heart rate is high due to blood being sent to the arms, legs and torso to put you in the best self defense mode. However, the more prepared you are with self defense training, the less likely you will have to deal with predators and aggressors. We all need to feel safe as it is necessary for our well-being.
Our Vancouver self defense classes include many forms of martial arts. Russian hand-to-hand combat is one of the most effective self defense training methods for real life situations, including street violence.
