Join us for a dynamic, hands-on workshop focused on the essential foundations of physical self-defence. Whether you’re new to self-defence or have previous martial arts experience, this session is designed to empower you with practical, realistic, simple and effective skills that anyone can learn.
What You’ll Learn:
▫️De-escalation principles – how to defuse situations before they turn physical
▫️Social vs. anti-social violence – understanding different types of aggression and the appropriate responses
▫️Pre-attack indicators – spotting the warning signs and appropriate actions
▫️Threat assessment – reading body language to gauge potential level of threat
▫️Flinch response training – turning your instinctive reactions into defensive tools
▫️Shredding techniques – primal, effective, and accessible methods of self-defence requiring no prior experience
This is not martial arts, this is a realistic street-based self-defence system. This workshop addresses proactive actions to avoid dangerous situations and equip participants with practical and effective self-defence techniques for scenarios where avoidance isn’t possible.
Facilitated by Dave and Shellé Friedman Directors of Krav Maga Australia and experts in holistic personal safety with backgrounds spanning counter-terrorism, behavioural analysis, and the neuroscience behind threat, stress, and human behaviour. Their work is grounded in lived experience, diversity awareness, and decades of frontline practice.
Who Should Attend:
▫️Beginners with no prior training
▫️Family and friends wanting to learn valuable skills together
▫️Experienced martial artists looking to broaden their practical self-defence knowledge
▫️Ages: 14+
Note: A parent or legal guardian must complete this purchase and waiver for any participant between 14 and 18 years.
