It was amazing to see all the students really push themselves leading up to our first annual Forge of Champions Tournament! Our competition was named this to emphasize the process of development that each competitor goes through while getting ready for the event, and I couldn't be prouder of our students.

Be sure to stop by our booth at the upcoming Old Time Fair in West Linn's Willamette Park. There's sure to be a lot of fun with demonstrations and board breaking going on all weekend long.


Friday, July 14 through Sunday, July 16

Address: 1100 12th ST, West Linn, OR 97068

Women's Self Defense Seminar

Picture
This January we will be starting the first in a series of short run seminars designed to highlight specific areas of interest. Everything from self defense, weapons defense, traditional weapons training, grab defense, strike defense, effective striking, competitions training, etc.

This specific four week class will cover the basics of self defense including what to say and do to keep yourself from ever being in a confrontation, and, if it is unavoidable, how to beat your attacker as quickly as possible.
Every participant receives a Kubotan ( a self defense keychain weapon considered by most to be 100% defensive ) and training in its use.

Monday, January 7th, 14th, 21st, and 28th.
Classes from 12:00 to 1:00 or 1:30 to 2:30 PM
Come to whichever works best for your schedule.



Zombie Self Defense Seminar

Coming this fall... the invasion has begun! Learn how best to defend yourself
against the smelliest, and thankfully slowest
attackers you'll probably never have to meet.
Approved for all ages, come in and learn ways to keep yourself and your children safe and have some fun doing it.

Thanks again to Jon Reynalds and all who helped with the seminar; I'm sure everyone had a great time!



 Jiu Jitsu Seminar

Picture
Our seminar with Tim Cartmell and Asa Fuller this past summer was amazing. It was good to see so many people come in from some pretty far distances and everyone who tested afterwards did great!

Be sure to check in before the next one so you don't miss out.
