Self Defence Training Seminars

Arakan Martial Art® Seminars provide you with an opportunity to learn fast and effective self-defence techniques in different environments and against different stimuli. 

Seminars have been held in a real nightclub, on a train, in a jail, a home and even your car! You learn effective and efficient self-protection techniques in close quarters or even against multiple attackers. Being confined to a car, train or bar is no barrier to effectively being able to defend yourself and your loved ones.

The purpose of these workshops is to enable you to develop effective street skills and techniques and learn to apply them by role playing various real life street scenarios. Role playing in a safe and controlled environment helps increase your threshold and enables you to be better prepared physically, emotionally and mentally should you be confronted with a real life situation.

These workshops help you fully immerse yourself into training and will give you amazing results that transpose into other areas of your life. 

Below are some workshops we have held. 

Night Club Seminar

Our Nightclub Seminar is taught in a real night club with real life scenarios. This is as realistic as it gets; the environment, music, noise, and atmosphere are all exactly as you would expect to find in a nightclub. The entire nightclub is reserved for our exclusive use during this seminar, allowing us to teach you practical self-defence techniques for real life scenarios that you may encounter in a nightclub, bar, restaurant, show or similar event. 

The techniques learnt in this seminar have been developed over many years to provide accelerated learning in practical, hands-on situations, whilst being in a controlled and safe environment. You learn how to defend yourself, loved ones and friends so you are prepared with these skills to handle these situations:

Home Invasion / Defence Seminar

One of the most intense situations a person can face, is dealing with someone invading their home, their private sanctuary.

Did you know in 2017, one home invasion occurred every three minutes across Australia?! It takes a burglar less than five minutes to break into your property, and one in 10 of those households that were broken into, had someone home. (Source www.abs.gov.au). Those are frightening statistics!

During this seminar you will be in a real house where you can learn skills and techniques for how to handle a potential home invasion. This is as real as it gets, whilst still being a safe and controlled environment.

During this seminar, you will learn how:

 

  • deal with an attacker or attackers attempting to enter your home 
  • use your surrounds to your advantage if they are already in your home
  • defend against various weapons such as knives and baseball bats
  • defend yourself if someone is in your bedroom or lying on top of you
  • increase self awareness and situational awareness
  • manage the physical, emotional and mental intensity of being attacked in your home
  • raise your threshold.
     

This is a confronting and very rewarding seminar - a vital session for anyone wanting to learn how to protect their most valuable assets; themselves, their loved ones and their home. 

 

Train / Public Transport Self Defence Seminar 

Being confined to a taxi, train, bus, car or other modes of transport does not limit you in being able to protect yourself and your loved ones effectively. During this seminar we hire a train for our exclusive use, so members can learn fast and powerful techniques in a safe, controlled and realistic environment.

These workshops are very real. We role play real life scenarios so you learn how to defend yourself and loved ones with real skills.

Arakan Truly has given me a sense of purpose and meaning. Not only does it keeps fit, healthy, confident and safe, Arakan also gives me a huge amount of happiness. I laugh so much with my instructors and students and have some of the best relationships within the club, it takes alot of trust to allow someone to throw deadly strikes to the mark and know they will pull them up at last minute!  I see the other instructors who have wives or girlfriends train and their kids train and it's just their life, and it's keeps them happy and healthy.  This art is way more than a martial art. It can become a home if you are open to it and you can do this until you’re old and always learn something new!  Sometimes I get home at 12 at night and get up at 5am to teach or I drive down the coast 4 times a week but it's all worth it for what Arakan gives me, I'm so proud and honoured to be a part of the club and get to do this.

Learn How to Fight

If you're in your 20s and serious about learning how to fight, you're probably weighing your options. Boxing, MMA, traditional martial arts—all of these can teach you valuable skills. But when it comes to real-world self-defence, where there are no rules and anything can happen, you need something more practical, something designed for the street rather than the ring.

That’s where Arakan Martial Art comes in.
