We're 2 weeks (July 17th) from hosting Realfighting.com's WR Mann for an Edged and Impact Weapon Defense seminar!!  

From the Realfighting.com Newsletter:

SATURDAY JULY 17 SEMINAR: 2:00 PM – 6:00 PM   
DEFENSE AGAINST EDGED AND IMPACT WEAPONS  
Most people I meet, who are interested in learning self-defense, quickly volunteer that their main goal is learning unarmed defense! How unrealistic, aren't most violent crimes committed with weapons? Getting punched or kicked is usually not lethal, however being attacked with a pipe, bat, machete or kitchen knife can be, yet most people don't know how to deal with this.

On Saturday, July 17th, from 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM Realfighting will present a class designed to help you protect yourself against edged weapons such as: machetes, kitchen knives, axes, folders as well as impact weapons such as: sticks, pipes, baseball bats, etc. This class is especially useful for Law Enforcement and Security Personal.

Instruction will be a combination of Floro Fighting Systems and Realfighting concepts. You will learn how to defend yourself with improvised weapons such as umbrellas, batons, plastic drink bottles, magazines as well as empty hands. You will also learn how to neutralize your attacker, win the encounter and either restrain and arrest him or to escape to safety.

*Certificates will be presented for attendees.
