The 4 Important Reasons to Take Self-Defense Classes

You’re probably reading this article because you want to learn self defense, or ways to protect yourself and people you love. In our self-defense classes, we cover all the basics of self defense, including how to position yourself, striking, blocking, and breaking free, but you’ll also learn about mental self defense techniques like awareness, threat prevention, and keeping calm in high-stress situations. We may be biased, but we believe self defense is one of the most important skills in the world. And after reading this article, we hope you’ll agree with us! Read more to find out the 4 best reasons to take self defense classes.

Unfortunately, This World is Unpredictable… and You May Need to Protect Yourself

Summer Camp 4, D3 Martial Arts Palm Harbor FL

Especially after the year 2020, it’s abundantly clear that we have far less control than we think! Our everyday lives can be shaken up by anything. Unfortunately it’s just impossible to guarantee that you’ll pass each day safely and without threat. This isn’t something to think too far into, or a reason to stop you from leaving the house, but it’s necessary to reflect on from time to time, especially when you’re considering self-defense classes.

All of our students know that self defense is the one thing you don’t want to have to use, but you’ll be glad you learned it if you DO have to use it. Our martial arts classes prepare everyone of all ages to handle an attack and protect themselves and their loved ones from harm, and we’re proud to be able to teach our students how to handle anything life throws their way.

Keep Yourself Safe

The ability to keep yourself safe with self defense is critical to feeling empowered and confident in any situation. We are in no way endorsing going down dark alleys alone or pursuing a truly dangerous activity – but if you find yourself in a compromising situation and need to fight back, self defense is absolutely necessary. We like to teach smart self defense classes for kids- physical self defense combined with mental awareness and education on how to avoid a fight in the first place.

Our students know how to de-escalate conflicts and avoid them, but if an altercation gets physical, again, it’s better to have self defense and use it than to not have that training at all. The mental elements and the physical elements of our martial arts classes combined help you maintain physical safety and psychological awareness of threat or danger.

Protect Your Loved Ones

In this world, most parents want to make sure their kids know how to defend themselves. Unfortunately, women are more likely to need to use self defense training, so parents want to make sure their daughters especially know how to keep themselves safe. It’s one thing to protect yourself. It’s another entirely to protect those you love. There would be nothing more heartbreaking than feeling like you could have done more if your loved one was attacked or got into a fight in your presence.

It’s also critical to pass down self defense education to your children, partners, loved ones and community members so they can keep themselves and their family members safe if anything should happen when you’re not there to protect them. That’s why we run self defense classes for women. We want to educate the community and keep everyone as safe as possible, and self defense is the best way to do it. It’s also totally probable that teaching your kids, siblings, cousins, and neighbors your new self defense moves will inspire them to learn too!

Get Fit in a Purposeful Way

Students who take self defense classes feel more confident and capable in their bodies in public, especially women. You’ll definitely feel more confident in your physique, because our classes help you get fit fast, but it also means feeling safe and secure existing in a physical space where threats or attackers can come from anywhere at any time (again- you never know what will happen). Not only that but you’re working out and moving your body, but in a way that is purposeful, so you feel even more accomplished after every class.

Training your body to a point of muscle memory in our martial arts classes is a wonderful exercise in self discipline, and it’s such an accomplishment to look back on your progress and see how you’ve transformed. This is especially true for our female students, who tend to feel better being in public after they’ve learned self defense and its benefits.

Conclusion

What do you think- ready to join self defense classes yet? 😉 It really is critical, and we do believe it’s one of the most important skills we can teach to our community. So all in all, the best reasons to learn self defense classes near me go beyond just physical safety. When you learn self defense, you’re empowering yourself and those around you to live safer lives!
