unarmed-armed-workshop

Sunday, 27 March – 1:00pm to 5:00pm

Realistic self defence does not only address equal scenarios. What do you do against the armed aggressive attacker when you are unarmed? The most dangerous situations need even more skill.
Some of Bartitsu’s foundational plays assume that the attacker has more strength, weight or a heavier weapon. In this four-hour workshop, we’ll consider effective unarmed self-defence versus an attacker armed with:

  • A stick or bat
  • A knife
  • A staff or pole

This workshop is open to the public with no prior experience. However, it will be most beneficial for those with previous unarmed martial arts experience, especially those who are at least Green Sash in our Bartitsu program.
For those with Bartitsu experience, we’ll also venture into:

  • Kubotan or knife defences against stick or bat
  • Umbrella defences against heavy stick or staff
