A comprehensive self-defence curriculum that covers a range of techniques and scenarios. Our founder, Andre Conate, has a deep passion for empowering individuals and creating a safe environment for learning.
At Self Defence Hub, we offer a variety of options to suit different needs and preferences. Our half-day workshops provide a comprehensive self-defence programme in just one day. Led by our expert female instructors, these workshops cover situational awareness, de-escalation techniques, and emergency response strategies. Participants will also learn stand-up and ground techniques to effectively defend themselves in various situations.
For those looking for a shorter workshop, we also offer 2-hour workshops that focus on specific self-defence techniques. These workshops are perfect for beginners who want to quickly learn practical skills.
We also cater to specific groups and needs. Our Self Defence for Surviving Victims of Crime (VOCAT) workshops provide tailored training for individuals who have experienced traumatic events. We also offer private self-defence lessons, perfect for those who prefer one-on-one instruction or have specific goals in mind.
In addition to our workshops and classes, we offer self-defence courses and ongoing classes. Our courses provide a comprehensive and progressive curriculum that allows participants to develop their skills over time. We believe in creating a fun and safe learning environment where every question is valued and answered in class.
Our training is not limited to one specific martial art style. We incorporate techniques from multiple martial arts to provide a well-rounded and effective approach to self-defence. Our instructors have extensive experience and expertise in various styles, ensuring that participants receive the best instruction possible.
We are proud to be an award-winning social enterprise, dedicated to making a positive impact in our community. We are committed to the empowerment and safety of our members, and we strive to create a safe space where individuals can learn and grow.
