Private Tuition

Adult Self Defence

Pro-Holistic provides self-defence lessons on a private tuition basis. These are not martial arts lessons (although we also provide this service) where the goal is to master an art.......these are no-nonsense techniques that are designed to be used in real situations, not in a dojo or competition. Tuition is from experienced self-defence teachers who have constructed a course of lessons that enable the client to gain confidence and ability in a shorter time frame.

This course is designed to make you aware of the options that you have, that are within your control, regarding: -

  • Awareness
  • Protection
  • Self-defence

Tuition is: -

  • On a one to one basis.
  • Tailored to the strengths and potential of the individual.
  • Builds self-confidence.
  • Involves relaxation techniques.
  • Enhances mental focus.
  • Is fun.

Our basic instinct, when faced with a threat, is either to lash out or to run away (fight, or fight response). There is a third option that is gained through ability and confidence that allows the potential victim to either walk away, or defend themselves, without feeling terrified.
