Welcome to our Classes page at ShadowCombatSystem. We offer self-defense classes and weapons training, including options for individual classes with professional instructors.
Self-defense Classes without Weapons
Hand-to-Hand Combat Skills
Our self-defense course blends principles from Aikido and Ninjutsu to teach effective hand-to-hand combat skills. Students will learn to neutralize threats using joint locks, throws, strikes, and evasion techniques. Emphasis is placed on redirecting an opponent’s energy, breaking balance, and leveraging natural movements to overcome larger or stronger attackers. These techniques promote situational awareness, adaptability, and confidence in handling real-world confrontations.
Self-defense Classes with Weapons
Weapons Training in Aikido and Self-Defense
Our classes incorporate weapons training to enhance coordination, focus, and practical self-defense skills. Students will learn to handle traditional Aikido weapons, including the bokken (wooden sword), katana ,jo (short staff), and tanto (wooden knife), emphasizing control and precision. These tools are used to develop techniques that translate to empty-hand self-defense scenarios, improving situational awareness and adaptability in real-world encounters.
