Self Defense Classes
Specialty Self Defense Classes For Women and Groups
If you were a regular member from the very first day at MKG Martial Arts you would be improving your ability to defend yourself.
However, some people and organizations have a pressing self-defense need and we offer workshops, seminars and classes in self defense. Our state of the art self defense techniques combine with awareness and avoidance drills to form the base of these classes.
Most workshops are focused on self defense for women but we happily conduct specialty courses that include men, for college or high school students and we are proudly supportive of our LGBTQIA friends and community.

Primary Focus of Self Defense Workshops
MKG Seattle’s Self Defense Program strives for participants to gain the knowledge and skills necessary to A) keep themselves out of harm’s way and B) defend themselves during a violent encounter.
The primary focus of the workshop is to develop a person’s ability to detect potential danger and avoid it. The secondary focus is embedding the physical skills needed to survive a physical attack.
The MKG method employs techniques that are easy to perform under stress, are not pain or repetition based and have a proven track record.
