Learn a system of self defence that cuts through the classical forms
and sets and concentrates purely on fitness,and
effective simple
self defence techniques that you can master very quickly without
too much overload
of information.
Once you have been equipped with a basic package of simple
techniques for the most common forms of attack
you can settle
down and begin to play around with the concepts and ideas that
are offered to you.
No one will criticise you for stepping out of the classical technique
you are taught, the basic prerequisite
is that your techniques are
realistic and street effective and can be pressure tested.
