Watched the video. The BJJ program seems to emphasize very simple techniques. You’d find a lot of the same in Krav Maga. It looks like a longer term program. That would be good for some people and not as good for others.

Seems hokey. I have a hard time believing that this is really helpful.

If you think Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is “hokey,” you haven’t tangled with a practitioner.

ANY organized resistance to assault is superior to surrendering to the tender mercies of a psychopath. What a good self defense course will do is (1) help students accept that they can become a victim; (2) teach them to recognize common pre-incident indicators and attack patterns so they are less likely to be caught unaware; (3) work to ingrain simple defensive techniques; and (4) build students’ confidence that they can successfully resist.

BJJ, like any martial art, has its strong points and its weak points. A self defense class won’t give the advantages of years of regular practice and training. But it is better than nothing, particularly if it covers points 1 and 2 above, since those can help prevent an attack before it starts.

DC Impact. Women get to pound on safety suited attackers.

Not sure if this is the right forum. If it isn't sorry
