SELF DEFENSE CLASSES AT DUNELAND YMCA
The Duneland YMCA and Midwest Martial Arts has formed a partnership in offering beginner martial arts & adult self defense classes. We offer youth and adult sessions; the classes are open to all youth from ages 4-14 years old and adults ages 15 and up.
The youth classes are an introduction to various martial arts styles that will rotate each week. Ending with a final performance to showcase all your skills that you have learned throughout the session.
The adult classes focus on development of self-confidence, empowerment, and respect for others while learning how to defend themselves and stay in shape.
We encourage the practice of core values of caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility.
* NEW FRIDAY NIGHTS CLASSES! (summer only)
United states concealed carry academy
The USCCA is the industry leader when it comes to curriculum based self defense training and laws regarding anything from firearms, tasers, steak knifes, to unarmed self defense encounters.
The physical side to self defense is the easy part because it only requires learning a handful of basic techniques and drilling them until they become second nature. The more difficult element to self defense is learning to read pre-assault ques and how to spot & avoid a violent encounter in the first place. Another vitally important aspect to self defense is understanding the psychology and physiology of a violent encounter and how stress can affect your entire body.
The only guaranteed method of surviving a violent encounter is to avoid it in the first place. Having good situational awareness and not looking like a victim are key components to avoiding conflict. Our program will teach you how to be the "WRONG" person!
Who is the wrong person?
The wrong person is someone a stalker, attacker or criminal does not want to mess with! This person is too alert and aware of their surroundings and they appear to be prepared and ready. The wrong person is a fighter, a warrior, and he/she is worth defending!
