Strength will ALWAYS be an advantage. So why not give it to yourself?

Because our self-defence classes are ongoing and not just one-off seminars, we have the luxury of helping our students build themselves up into stronger, tougher, fitter versions of themselves - which not only makes their physical self-defence skills more effective, it also makes them a less likely target.

We consistently get feedback from our students that they feel so much stronger after training with us. Their making leaps in their physical fitness that they never even dreamed of. One girl went from a handful of knee push-ups to being able to crank out 30 solid toe push-ups with impeccable form.

Why not find out what you're REALLY capable of?

The best self-defence moves are the ones you can remember and use under pressure. That means they should be quick, simple, and reliable.

Years of martial arts training will always be extremely valuable, but teaching complex moves to someone who is only going to be with you for a short time doesn't serve their needs.

Our training starts with moves you can learn today and use tomorrow, if needed. We make sure you've got the quick and dirty skills down first. We introduce them, test your recall a few weeks later, then pressure test them to make sure you've got them nailed down.

And when you're ready for the next challenge, we build on complexity and intensity through a series of progressive levels.

Start your training with us any time - our classes run year round.

Stay safe!

Good self-defence training does so much more than teach you how to fight. It should cover things like situational awareness, verbal de-escalation, threat assessments, and how to navigate the aftermath of trauma and the legal system. It should build your confidence, not only on the mats but in your every day life. It should teach you how to stay calm under pressure, and how to set boundaries with the people in your life. It should build your resilience when things get tough, and your drive to always be improving.

This is what we do at Empowered Defence Centre. Our classes for Kids, Teens and Adults all have 2 goals: 1) Make sure you can handle yourself if things get violent. 2) Give you the skills and mental frameworks that will minimize your risk of violence to begin with.
