Arakan Martial Art® is passionate about helping ladies become more empowered and confident, whilst learning fast and effective self defence techniques that will keep you and your loved ones safe.
We believe everyone has the right to defend themselves. Arakan Martial Art® is incredibly adaptable. Not only do you learn practical skills, you will also gain greater focus and awareness. You will learn to move your body in a very dynamic way and use your opponent’s size and energy against themselves; meaning you do not need size or brute strength to protect yourself effectively. By developing a greater understanding of body weight, momentum and moving with the path of least resistance, you will learn to produce your movements with precision, speed, power and flow.
Your safety is our number one priority. Our training is always conducted with your best interests at heart, at your level and at a pace that you can follow to learn techniques and skill sets. During training you would have ‘role played’ potential scenarios many times in a safe environment; this increases your threshold and enables you to be better prepared emotionally and mentally should you be confronted in a real life situation.
If you have never been grabbed, punched, kicked, attacked or verbally abused in anyway and the first time it happens is during a confrontation, then you are most likely going to be completely unprepared with how to deal with that situation. Or even if you have experienced any of these stimulus’s, a typical response may be to freeze, shocked by the confrontation, not knowing what to do or how to respond. With Arakan Martial Art® you will have trained for these scenarios and many more, in a safe and controlled environment, to enable you to be better prepared emotionally, mentally and physically, should you be confronted in a potential situation.
Arakan Martial Art® is not a competition based style, so you will not be fighting or competing against another student. Our focus is fast and effective self-defence techniques. Arakan Martial Art® as a club provides a safe environment for everyone to come together and learn practical, efficient and effective self defence skills and techniques whilst increasing overall health and well being.
It doesn’t matter if you have never done any form of martial arts before or your overall fitness level is quite low. Your Arakan training will begin from where you are at and slowly build you from your level. You will notice your fitness increasing; improving your overall health and well-being as well as learning self defence skills, enabling you to protect yourself and loved ones.
