Fast Track Defense: Start Strong. Build Smart.

Most new students begin with two classes per week – it’s the perfect pace to build a strong foundation, absorb key techniques, and develop real confidence without feeling overwhelmed.

As your skills grow, you are welcome to add our Saturday Precision Striking class – a focused bonus training day designed to sharpen your timing, accuracy, and power through high-rep static drills.

No rush. No pressure.
Just steady, real-world progress at a pace that works for you.

What the Program Delivers

Our Fast Track Self-Defense program is designed for real life – not tournaments, not theory. You will learn how to defend yourself with clarity, confidence, and control under pressure.

  • Functional striking, escapes, and threat response

  • Situational awareness and high-stress decision making

  • Physical conditioning that supports real-world scenarios

  • Mental discipline that builds calm in the chaos

Why It Works

This program builds more than skill – it builds readiness.
You do not rise to the occasion. You default to your training.

Fast Track Defense gives you the tools to be ready – physically, mentally, and emotionally. And when you are ready to sharpen your edge even further, Precision Striking is your next move.
