Group Self Defence Classes



Group Self Defence Classes

Arakan Martial Art® group self defence classes are available to further enhance your journey and are an excellent way to supplement your personal training lessons.  We provide a safe, friendly and fun environment where you will learn effective self-protection techniques, empowerment, confidence, focus and discipline. 

Group classes are suitable for all fitness levels and will help you increase your conditioning and skills to remain calm in heightened situations. Groups will work together in unison, encouraging one another, building awareness, skill sets, techniques and threshold to deal with many ‘real life’ scenarios, in a supportive and safe environment. Not only do you learn practical skills, you will also gain greater focus and awareness.

You will be inspired training with fellow members who are fun, dedicated and positive. You will feel connected to many great people and you may even make life-long friends. You will feel incredible levels of camaraderie and gain real results.

 
Members do not compete against each other; you will not be asked to compete or ‘fight’ against your training partners, however you will learn to develop greater self awareness and situational awareness and learn to adapt your techniques in a group environment.

 

You will learn to protect yourself fast and efficiently and have the opportunity to learn to strike and defend in any distance and from various angles. You may also have the opportunity to learn to defend yourself against multiple attackers and other ‘real life’ scenarios, making group training a must for all members.

During Group Self Defence classes you will have the opportunity to develop some of the following:

  • learn practical and effective self-defence skills,
  • learn skills and techniques to ensure your safety and wellbeing, 
  • increase self-awareness, 
  • increase situational awareness, 
  • learn skills to remain calm in heightened situations,
  • learn to diffuse and divert a potential situation,
  • dynamic footwork
  • effective striking and kicking
  • devastating strikes, joint locks and holds
  • improve physical conditioning to manage situations more effectively
  • improve mental focus and concentration,
  • gain a greater understanding of body mechanics and energy slings, 
  • improve coordination,
  • increase health and fitness, and
  • defence against multiple attackers
  • close quarters techniques
  • diffuse potentially threatening situations
  • protection techniques to look after your partner and/or friend 
  • manage the physical, emotional and mental intensity of being potentially ‘attacked’. 

Our group classes are based on each member’s skill level and experience so you will be comfortable knowing that your training partners are at a similar level as you are. 

The social aspect of group lessons is where members support each, grow together and help each other on their journey. You will be part of an amazing group where all members are helping each other grow and where all members care for each other whilst helping to bring out the best in one another.

I have been training with Corey now for over 4 years and initially i started training with him to get some basic fitness. I had my first complimentary lesson with Corey and was show the backfist and how to generate more power to that blow with some "technique". It was amazing to realise the difference in the power of the blow. Corey has since trained me every week since that time and (has patiently) explained everything concisely (many times) to assist my growth with Arakan Martial Art. It was apparent from the outset that Corey was passionate and considerate but his understanding of Arakan enabled him to teach the art at a very understandable level right through to being enabled to grade my first belt.
I now train with Corey to gain greater understanding of the next belt requirements but due to the exposure to Coreys passion and understanding of Arakan, is now not just about grading but more about a journey of learning that is continuous. The health benefits have been great for me personally and I cannot thank Corey enough for what he has helped me to achieve. I highly recommend him as an Arakan Instructor and have entrusted him to start training with my 14 year old son. Again, I see Corey gently working away with him and encouraging him. The benefits of having some knowledge, of what he is being Instructed, only brings us closer and gives us a better bond. Exponentially, my eldest son trains and my youngest daughter has trained for 4 years (this month, Jan 2020) as well, so it really has become a family affair.
Thanks for everything Corey

When ‘life happens’, it is an opportunity to rise up and show our strength and courage. With the recent pandemic hitting our shores, it meant some changes needed to happen with training, whilst conforming with the strict government regulations and hygiene protocols.

With our wellbeing and health being highlighted and taking precedence in most people’s lives, we felt it more important than ever before to help keep our members training. Numerous studies have shown that physical activity is linked to boosting our immune system as well as maintain physical and mental wellbeing.

Mental Wellbeing and Support During the Global Pandemic
As global citizens, we have all been adversely affected by the COVID-19 Pandemic. This might just be to our day-to-day socio-occupational routines and training regimes but most likely than not, it has affected our sense of security and certainty about the future to some extent. For some, it can be hard not to worry what the Pandemic and its socio-economic impacts can mean for ourselves, our families, friends and communities.
