About Dynamic Self-Defense
Dynamic Self Defense isn't like traditional martial arts.
There are no katas, no rituals, no sacred traditions, no rigid stances, no punching from the hip, no metaphysical nonsense, nothing that isn't 100% practical in real life.
Dynamic Self-Defense is a mixed martial art built from the pieces of other arts and combined into a fully practical curriculum for adults and children ages 6 and up.
