Ran SteinbergMartial arts & self-defenseTraining for women and men
Put what's on your mind aside for a while and focus on something else: movement, timing, your training partner. Come to learn self-defense, get back in shape or take your martial arts further. Or look forward to training simply because you enjoy being there.

A good reason to get out of the house
Some people come to learn to defend themselves. Some want to improve. Others are already looking forward to seeing their friends.
In a group, you work up a sweat, train with different partners and keep refining the details. You learn to work with different movements and paces, look out for your partner and keep going when practice gets challenging. As your skills develop, you can go further into precision, timing and choosing the right response.
You can start without any previous experience. Talk with Ran about your background and choose a group trial session or private training.
Your previous experience still matters, but after a break it's worth checking what works for your body now. Tell Ran about your past training and decide together where to start again.
If you already train, there's room for questions about precision, timing, stand-up work and groundwork. Ran himself continues to train and learn with Dennis.
