Course Feedback
Outstanding course!!! As a small kid, I took karate for years because I got picked on a lot and all I wanted to do was to be left alone and know how to meet force with force if I had to. Karate lessons didn't help at all because nobody goes into a kata during a street fight. And after taking this course, I never heard of practically ANY of what this course teaches. It's nasty sh** and will eff someone up fast if needed. But the key takeaway is to avoid the situation altogether if at all possible. This is BEST self defense course I could ever want. Thanks Patrick!!!
Adam
Thank you! It is exactly the kind of material that I am looking for. Your course is no BS common sense self-defense and I really love it!
Yves Chamberland
This course was AMAZING. I currently take martial arts and found that some of the concepts taught here might be even more effective in the long run than the techniques I have been learning the past few years in martial arts.

Customer Feedback
A really great experience understanding the psychology of violence and how to be more aware of keeping yourself safe so you can avoid conflict. In the event that you do have to defend yourself , this course gives you the skills to do that in a way that uses the body's natural movement through the techniques of krav Maga and in only 2 days. Patrick pushes you through any fear or doubts within yourself and brings you to where you need to go. How to defend and protect yourself effectively when it's a last resort. This course is highly recommended.
D. Fennell
Essential, practical training for any man or woman who wishes to live and travel with confidence. I say confidence because that is what this course gives you. You learn step by step how to protect yourself and those you love, be it your child or grandparent. Patrick and his joyful team of instructors give you both the psychological and physical skills needed to avoid and disrupt any potential attacker. I loved the psychological component to the training. Patrick is a trained psychotherapist and it shows. Every lesson is well thought out and intended to build on what you have already mastered.You learn how to out-psych your attacker with moves and strategies he will never see coming.
I’ve done both the 2 day basic training and 2 day advanced courses and could not recommend them highly enough.
S. Crowley

It offers a comprehensive approach to safety and empowerment that goes beyond mere physical techniques, providing invaluable skills and knowledge for navigating the world with confidence and resilience" click for more
Completing Krav Maga’s Parent and Teen training alongside my daughter was an incredibly valuable experience for both of us.
The training is highly effective, with techniques that are easily learned and retained, even by younger participants. It is particularly well-suited for individuals without any prior martial arts background, as it instils the correct mindset and prepares students to "expect the une
