Special Programs

In addition to our regular Ju-Jitsu training, we are able to offer other specialized programs on an "as requested" basis. We usually try to hold at least one "Mini-Seminar" per month on these specialized topics for the general public and for the benefit of our own students. These programs include:

PPCT (Pressure Point Control Tactics - Level 1)

           (a Police based system)

Although the knowledge of the locations, as well as how to attack the pressure points of the human body, has been around for several hundreds of years, fairly recently research in police defense tactics has greatly contributed to a much more scientific understanding of how these pressure points are affected by various methods of contact. The police PPCT system is made up of only the most practical, effective and easily accessible pressure points.  The system is easy to learn and the techniques can be successfully applied by both males and females and their use can easily be defended in court because of their low propensity to cause serious injuries.  From a martial artists point of view this makes PPCT a must know skill.

Course length: 2 hours

Course cost: $30 / person

 

Keychain / Keyholder

What makes the Keychain such an ideal tool of self-defense is that everyone of us needs to carry keys with us at all times; we all need keys for our house, apartment, car, office, mailbox, etc. Thereby making them readily available for use in an self-defense situation should you ever become the victim of an unprovoked and vicious physical assault. Apart from being very low-profile and non-threatening in appearance, the Keychain techniques themselves are very simple to learn and can be mastered in a few short hours. Due to the tremendous power that Keychain blows can generate, persons of all ages and sizes can benefit from its use. Another great advantage is that you do not have to be an Olympic caliber athlete to apply the Keychain techniques forcefully and effectively. No special physical ability is required.

Course length: 2 hours

Course cost: $30 / person (includes a Keychain)
