Uptown Realtors Personal Defense Training Meetup

This very first meetup will address the basic "body language" of defense. How do you move around in an environment where you face multiple, simultaneous attackers. Footwork and balance are key, so this will be the focus of the first class in the series. Along with this will be an emphasis on covering the head during an attack. While that may sound like "common sense" the methodology behind it is not so common...but it is "instinctive." Learn how to protect the most important body part in an attack, the same one that keeps you conscious so you can property defend yourself until the attack subsides or escape is possible. For this very first class, it will be fairly low impact as basic movement is the key, but a very important foundational key to much of what we will cover in the weeks ahead. Attire is and will always be "casual" for workout purposes. MAT TALK: What can we learn about predators from the animal kingdom? What can we learn about survival skills from a 2 or 5-year old?
