The purpose of the Motive Specific Self Defence system is to offer courses that are both highly effective in practical circumstances and easy to teach. The vast majority of martial arts training available today does not address the issue of motive specifics – it is a general training over the long term (which I also offer) but remains impractical until many years of devoted study and practice are undertaken. MSSD training resolves this issue.

​

The courses are taught by myself and other skilled instructors over a small number of weekends. The courses are intensive and I aim to produce predictable results. And do so. I will fulfil my promise to you. I promise that I can offer no guarantees about the outcome of any violent and dangerous situation but I will teach you the skills that I believe will give you the best chance of survival.

​

In the society we live in now, there is very little chance to feel safe in confrontations that can sour very quickly, except if you are trained appropriately. What I offer is not for everyone. It is for people who are responsible and want to learn. I say this often. I don’t waste my time.
