HOW WE TRAIN
At FightLab, we base our Self-Defence classes around confrontations that can be common in everyday life. The governing concept of the program is that our principles and techniques must embrace a practical application of your knowledge to an imperfect world where we are exposed to aggression and violence – a world that you cannot always control.
About our system
This is a modern training syllabus, tried & tested within amateur MMA, Sport Ju Jitsu and Combat Sambo and overseen by British Martial Arts & Boxing Association, GB Ju-Jitsu and the British Sambo Federation.
This is a self-defence system utilises instinctive movements, aggressive counterattacks, and a no-holds-barred mentality. Our self-defence system is easy to learn, is easy to retain, and brings students to a high-level of proficiency in hand-to-hand combat in a short period of time. Students are advised to train twice a week to progress at a normal rate.
We utilise a belt system that corresponds to the level in which people train. Students are not just graded of the knowledge of techniques but also a tested RIGOROUSLY in both fitness & live sparring. Students who compete within Combat Sambo have their fight experience counted towards their overall grade.
Stay safe in any situation with battle tested no nonsense, proven effective martial arts system. No wasted, fancy, phoney techniques.
Our Mission
Our program uses martial arts to teach confidence, coordination, structure, and discipline to both youth and adults.
Our motto is "LIVE CLEAN, TRAIN HARD, FIGHT DIRTY"
Anxiety about verbal abuse, assault, rape, hate crime or stalking is something that many people experience in their daily lives. Walking across a dark car park, being out at night on your own or feeling that someone might be following you can be scary and unnerving.
At FightLab, we provide self defence training to ensure that the people in your community feel confident of their own ability to protect themselves. We’re not talking martial arts or fitness classes here, we’re talking about education and simple techniques to stay safe in everyday life
Switching On
Typically, we will start out by looking at awareness of threats, how to evaluate them and strategies to avoid risk. We examine how your body might react to a high-stress situation and the effect that adrenaline has on you.
Physical Responses
We can cover improvised weapons and how to be prepared, moving on to how you can respond physically to different types of attacks. Striking techniques will include kicking, punching, close quarter and grappling.
