Self-Defence Courses and Workshops for Beginners and Advanced Students
In all regular self-defence courses and workshops, training takes place in mixed small groups (i.e. women, men, boys and girls) of at least 6 to a maximum of 12 people. The minimum age for participation is 16 years, otherwise please contact us in advance. The target groups are beginners who would like to get an initial overview of the topic, as well as advanced participants who would like to expand their existing knowledge or gain new impulses. The training is suitable for young people, adults and senior citizens. Group-specific courses (e.g. self-defence for women, children and senior citizens or as a team-building event for companies and businesses) and individual one-to-one training are also available by arrangement. No particular fitness level is required, but each participant trains according to their own abilities..
No special clothing is required for training; long sports trousers, a sturdy T-shirt (and possibly a change of T-shirt) and sports shoes suitable for indoor use are recommended. Please also bring a towel and enough to drink, and for courses lasting one or more days, a snack for the break in between.
Each participant will be provided with the necessary personal protective equipment for the duration of the training. If you already have your own protective equipment, such as mouth guards, groin guards, fist or shin guards, you are welcome to bring them with you.
Training Results
Short video with impressions of the voluntary :) final exercise of a one-day self-defence course. All participants were beginners and had had until that point no contact with martial arts or self-defence.
Due to the short time available, the focus of the course was more on teaching principle-based content and less on the correct execution of single techniques. Once again, the whole thing went by far too quickly without any injuries and with a high level of motivation and good humour on the part of everyone involved :)
