We feel a responsibility as Self-Defense experts to educate the unknowing public on these “victim-focused” crimes. It is unfortunate that in today’s society we see an ever-increasing rise in these crimes, as opposed to a reduction. It is a matter of social injustice that we must educate our sons, daughters, wives, nieces, and friends on how to protect themselves physically through learning self-defense, home security, and most importantly, elevation of their “awareness”. We know that the ONLY way to combat these crimes is thru education and prevention. As a service, we at Cedar Rapids Karate Institute provide various curriculums, above and beyond our contemporary martial arts training. We provide very focused, condensed, and intensive seminars and training courses to women’s groups, corporations, children’s organizations, etc. on the very important subject matter of personal safety. It is common sense and smart to thwart these criminals through our own education, intelligence, and abilities. This only happens thru education. We provide a no-nonsense, straightforward and candid training that covers the following: very effective physical self-defense techniques insights into the assailant psyche personal protection devices self-confidence stalker-prey mentality along with other important subjects to increase an individual’s ability to improve their safety, awareness, and physical capabilities. In the event the unthinkable happened – and one was confronted by an assailant – and had to defend themselves or a loved one, this information is critical. We have student after student comment how the course content “changed” how they would manage their safety. If you would like more information on these classes, seminars, and trainings please contact us" Sincerely, Tim L.
