Understanding What You're Really Facing
As fathers and husbands ourselves, We know what's at stake.
Over the past 8 years, we've trained over 3,000 students and worked with schools, businesses, and councils across Kent and London.
We understand the specific challenges different groups face - and we tailor our content accordingly.
We also focus on:
Situational Awareness - Reading environments and recognizing warning signs before situations escalate
Trusting Your Instincts - Your gut feeling is rarely wrong. We teach you to listen to it.
De-escalation Skills - How to defuse confrontations and avoid physical conflict when possible
The T-CUPS Method - Thinking Correctly Under Pressure, a framework we learned directly from Sir Clive Woodward, England's World Cup-winning rugby coach. This gives you mental preparation for various scenarios so you have a plan before you need it.
Our goal isn't to teach you how to fight. It's to help you avoid the fight entirely - and give you the tools to escape safely if you can't.
A Safe, Supportive Environment
We've seen other providers who are too rough with participants, causing injuries or discomfort. That's not how we work.
Our training is controlled, progressive, and respectful of all fitness and confidence levels. Everyone learns at their own pace. No one gets hurt. No one feels embarrassed.
Most people arrive with some self-doubt, even if they're good at hiding it. They're not sure if they can actually do this. They wonder if it will be too hard, too intimidating, or whether the techniques will really work.
They leave empowered.
They realize the techniques are simple and effective. They discover they're stronger than they thought. They have a clear action plan so they won't freeze if something happens.
That's why we do this.

Advanced Training
Reality Under Pressure Training
Are You Really Prepared? Let’s Find Out.
In a real-life confrontation, adrenaline surges, panic sets in, and decision-making becomes harder.
Our advanced Urban Stress Test Training
takes self-defence beyond the classroom, placing you in safe but "high-pressure, realistic scenarios"
where your instincts, reactions, and training are truly put to the test.
Real-World Setting
Conducted in an urban environment (typically an industrial estate) to replicate the unpredictability of real-life threats.
Controlled Adrenaline Stress Tests
Our experienced instructors will role-play, surprise, and place you under pressure in a variety of ways
in controlled but uncomfortable scenarios, testing your ability to react under pressure.
Tactical Training Under Pressure
Learn to assess danger, make rapid decisions, and apply self-defence techniques when it matters most.
Confidence Through Experience
The more you train under stress, the more prepared you'll be in a real-life situation. This is where theory meets reality.
This course is not for beginners—it’s for those who want to test their self-defence skills in an authentic, high-intensity yet safe environment.
