I am a certified Personal Defense Readiness (PDR) instructor with Blauer Tactical Systems, a worldwide leader in self-defense training. I’m also a 2nd degree black belt and certified taekwondo instructor.
Personal Defense Readiness (PDR) is a reality-based self-defense system, effective at preparing you for the real world. It’s easy to learn regardless of your previous experience.
Unlike most self-defense systems that rely on strength, speed, and coordination, the techniques in the PDR program builds upon the functional movements you already know how to perform.
You’ll learn how to employ body position, technique, and timing, so regardless of age or athletic ability, you can make them work against larger opponents.
I've been teaching martial arts and self-defense for 10+ years and love leading my students through the process of gaining confidence, awareness and acquiring the skills to protect themselves in a violent situation. Students learn blocks, strikes and immobilization holds, and how to strike vulnerable attacker targets (head, face, throat, groin, etc.). In addition to technical self-defense skills, we will work on situational awareness, self-confidence, and “finding your voice”.
