We firmly believe the best self defense comes from being mindful of spaces and situations. We believe de escalation and avoiding confronations at all costs is the best self defence and a practical effort to sustain a civil society. We are also not naive to discard the fact that it may occur, hopefully never, that one time when the situation could not be foreseen nor the phisycal confrontation with an evil doer can be avoided. And those are the scenarios we train for.
