Although fitness, not self defence, was my initial reason for starting WT, from the first class I felt significantly more confident in my ability to defend myself from an attack. I am happy to say I haven’t been disappointed on the fitness side either! After 9 months and 3 grading’s I am still constantly impressed with how practical and intelligent this system is.
It is based on an excellent understanding of body mechanics allowing a weaker victim to defend themselves successfully against a much stronger opponent. In addition , the teaching method in WT is very much “hands on”. The majority of each class involves contact with various partners of differing strengths and builds. This trains you to become familiar with the force and techniques used in an attack and to automatically respond effectively. These two points make WT the perfect martial art for women.
The atmosphere in class is friendly and encouraging. The instructors are extremely professional and safety during class is always a priority.
Try it, you’ll be hooked!”
