John Steinbeck Jerry, I just completed your course on Street Smart Hand-To-Hand Self Defense and I now have a more positive mind set and confidence if I need to call on these skills in an actual confrontation. Louie is an excellent instructor. Louie turned out to be more than just an instructor, I feel like I have made a new friend. His stories and experience helped add to the class moral. He has high standards as far as punctuality and does not criticize but instructs with patience and praise. Thanks Again, WVFD Chief Don Day

STREET SMART MIXED MARTIAL ARTS FITNESS TRAINING Achieving Real Results ! We don't show you how to fight, we teach you how to win! ~ Jerry Dean Realistic Techniques For Defending Yourself In Real Life Situations Holds, throws, strikes, and breaks you can easily learn to master and retain when the adrenalin is flowing, regardless of age or size. 8 Two-Hour Lessons In four weeks which will improve your self-esteem and confidence to the highest level of your entire life! Those who are destined to win study first, then fight. Those destined to lose, fight first and then (if they're still alive) study why they lost. "The Tactical Pistol"-Gabriel Suarez STREET SMART, unlike traditional Martial Arts, is an informal training experience similar in some respects to 'Escrima'. Our approach is "Free Form", with you utilizing the strikes, kicks, and throws we teach without any set plan, as no two altercations you'll encounter will ever be the same. Competition, while beneficial in various ways as practiced in the ring, in no way prepares an individual with the reality of brutal conflicts as they happen "on the street". As many of our students are also licensed to carry a handgun, we try hard to differentiate the two concepts of self-defense. De-escalation is still our first goal, as avoiding confrontations is still the only way anyone goes home at the end of the day undamaged. "Hand-to-Hand or armed conflict, 50% of all participants lose". Unknown Knowing how to use a firearm, and then having it with you, can alter the outcome of a conflict. Then there's the legal aspect of defending yourself again after you've been placed in the position of having to shoot someone to protect yourself. Our legal system doesn't always care whose fault it is either. Here's where the words "conflict resolution" come in. Did you make every effort to avoid the conflict or "flee" the aggressor? Did you really try to retreat? What about how to effectively protect yourself (without a handgun) when there's "No time" for conflict resolution or the aggressor is intent on causing you bodily harm? "Street Smart" lessons will allow you to come out a winner when real life situations demand you be more ruthless and aggressive than your enemy is! If you believe in "Fair Play" you're living in a dream world, and you're the perfect "target" most criminals are looking for. Compare fighting "by the rules" to how the VC fought in Vietnam, or today's terrorists. Whether you like it or not, they are fighting to win and they're not worried about rules. You can live in a politically correct (PC) world and get beat up, or you can use some "dirty tricks" your opponent may not know and have a good chance of winning. Street Smart contains lessons for techniques and training that will change your life! A no-nonsense combination of street fighting, martial arts and military hand-to-hand combat techniques. A true confidence building experience that will help you protect yourself and loved ones. Street Smart Self-Defense Concept Basic to Advanced Classes Point blank, Street Smart classes will help you protect yourself in the vicious world we now have to contend with in the 21st century. Let's be honest, law enforcement duties have been relegated to the roll of traffic law enforcement and 'report takers', after the fact, after the crime has been committed. We also know you can expect little, if any, help or assistance from the public at large. Strangers, even perhaps your neighbors, many/most, who will continue on with their personal pursuits, or to their destination, after gawking at your bleeding body. If you or your family were to be in need of help, you'd best be prepared to take care of them yourself. If you do not own a handgun, or do not have one on you at the time of an altercation, you had best be able to defend yourself and family with your own two hands and feet. In today's world, assailants don't just show up in dark alleys in the big cities. It can happen in any small town department store parking lot, or at a service station while you're gassing up. Bullies at your workplace, thugs in a restaurant during your lunch hour or while dining with your family, at any intersection on your way to and from your home, or even in your own driveway. Learn how to overcome these types of individuals at their own game and do it with courage and self-confidence. Face aggression and know you'll be the winner!
