Self-Defense

Whether we are brand new to training or have prior experience, self-defense is always in the back of our mind.

The what would happen if… questions always making us wonder if we are really ready.

What do we need to be ready for?

How should I react if?

Do I need to discuss this with my family?

What about weapons?

What should I carry?

What if someone else has a weapon?

What do I do then?

Do You Already Train?

Actively training in combat sports is a proven method for building confidence and real skills for fighting.

Whether actively involved in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Boxing, Muay Thai, Wrestling, Judo, or ANY other combat sport, you are a cut above the average person walking around in the world.

But how and when should you use those skills?

How forward should you be?

At what point is it time to put the skill set that you have honed in training, into use against another person out in the normal world?

These are the questions that need to be answered, and that Coach Paul Sharp can help make clearer for you in MDOC.

Never Trained Before?

“But what if I have never trained before?”

This is an important question and knowing where to start is almost half the battle.

The other half is getting started.

Paul Sharp has decades of experience in martial arts of all kinds. 

In MDOC Paul has combined these skills and past training, with real-life experiences and can help you build a solid foundation.

Not only a foundation in self-defense, but also in how to pick out a healthy training environment to continue building your skill set.

 

Is Running Always An Option?

At what point should we run?

What do we do if we can’t run?

What do we do if we are with a child or elderly family member?

Turning to run and leaving a loved one behind isn’t really an option at all.

Learning how to identify when a situation may be dangerous or may need to get physical, is a major skill set in and of itself.

Coach Sharp will walk you through some of the telltale signs in the opening segment of MDOC, MUC (managing unknown contacts).

MUC will help you in identifying possibly dangerous individuals long before it needs to get physical, and possibly keep it from ever getting physical in the first place.
