Unarmed Self Defense: $275

Course Designer: Greg Hamilton
No matter where you go, you can always have the self defense tools you were born with! Unarmed Self Defense is a must for anyone who wants to increase his or her self defense options. And it is a highly recommended self defense class for women and teens, since they are the most likely group to encounter grabs, chokes, and holds with the greatest disparity of force during violent assaults.

At the end of this two-day class you will be able to stun and disable an attacker of greater size and strength than yourself and escape to safety. You will learn the self defense system taught to U.S. Army Special Forces (Green Berets). This is a coherent system of techniques selected for their simplicity, effectiveness, and ease of learning.

You will progress from doing techniques "in the air" and against striking bags, to striking anatomically correct dummies. Eventually you will apply full force, full speed techniques against a live attacker in a specially designed suit.

This self defense class is an excellent choice for both those who are unwilling or cannot carry a firearm and for those that need to augment their firearms skills. If you carry a gun, learn how to not have to use it! This simple system will give you fight stopping techniques that will work regardless of your size, strength, or physical condition.

Subjects Covered:

  • Natural body weapons
  • Striking principles and vital target selection
  • Control of space, time, and distance
  • Defenses against punches and kicks

Student Testimonials

I took my first InSights course on Nov. 21 in Harrisburg. It was excellent. The techniques were realistic and easy to remember. They were also taught and demonstrated in a clear and concise manner. It was obvious that the lesson material was well thought out and and tested.

Mr Collins was very professional and insightful. He answered every question he was asked and usually demonstrated the answer. You know somebody knows what they're talking about when they show you "why" rather than just tell you. I'm definitely going to take Unarmed next year.
