Defensor Method
The Defensor Method is a complete system having its origin in Fillipino and Indonesian Martial Arts. At first this method looks complicated with the stick movements and hand techniques. It might scare you away. It’s my job as an instructor to explain the levels to make it easier to practice. I explain the movements so you can understand the flow with anyone. I show you the materials in a real life situation and how to stay calm and be aware of your environment.
By training in the Defensor Method you’ll get a good workout with the warm-ups. It’s a whole different experience.
