I never wanted to be a martial artist. I did want to get in shape and felt like working out in a gym was just pure vanity. I wanted my workouts to come with some useful life skills.Enter, Fresno School of Self Defense.This is the ultimate two-fer. It is an intense work out (and then some). Its also drilling valuable self-defense skills (grappling, striking, weapon use) into the subconscious.Recommended? Yes.
I have been attending classes at Fresno School of Self Defense for only a few months, and have already gotten in better physical shape and feel much more confident in my ability to defend myself. I enjoy the fast pace of the classes and the team atmosphere that they foster- everyone is very friendly and fun to be around! Self-defense is a great confidence booster and stress reliever. I always leave class feeling refreshed!
I trained in this location briefly because I moved unfortunately. What I can say is the instructor is great welcoming and will truly break down the techniques to your level. Had I not moved I would still be training there.
I attended the self defense class for runners and I had a great experience. The instructors were knowledgeable, approachable and friendly. I learned and practiced techniques I felt would be very useful and realized how unprepared I was to defend myself. I already signed up for their next seminar so I can continue practicing and feeling more confident with the techniques.
Great instructors. You leave all the classes confident in what you just learned.
I took the 3 hour Womens Self Defense Seminar on Sunday. What an awesome class at an unbelievable price! $10! The class was very informative and gives you practical theory as well as physical instruction that gives a great foundation on strategies for getting away from an attacker using proper body positioning and leverage. I learned I can pick someone up and toss them off me when being held on to from behind. I also learned how to protect my neck during a choke hold and how to get out from under someone pinning you down. I felt the strategies we were taught were fantastically relevant to what might happen and what I can do to recognize, avoid, and get myself away from a potential attacker. It really boosted my confidence in my ability to protect myself. If you are interested in learning self defense, TAKE THIS CLASS! Great teachers! Its a great workout too!
Awesome place!!
