Combat - You are expected to participate in the grappling / physical contact that makes up this class, or you should not be part of this class. The class only works when we have willing people who engage.
Older students are very much welcome and encouraged - Grappling, BJJ, Wrestling, Boxing, Kickboxing
In a safe and controlled environment, let's develop martial arts skills for confidence and self-defence: Wrestling, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and a little boxing and kickboxing (non-contact).
We will learn the importance of respecting our peers when participating in contact sports. In this class, you will be learning about a range of different combat options. There will be no intentional striking to harm, but we will learn techniques to help develop fitness and self-defence. This is to be a safe and respected environment where people can learn at their own pace, with help from other students who may have backgrounds in specific disciplines. In these classes, you will be in physical contact with other students and instructors to help with technical knowledge. In most cases, you will work with a buddy your size.
This class will be in the gym. You will need clothing you can run and jump around in, and be willing to have some of those clothes held onto.
