Mindset training

If you want to stay out of trouble, stay safe, and be equipped to deal with a physical assault (if necessary), effective combative techniques are useful, but the most essential element of training is your mindset.

Techniques without mindset are like a car without a steering wheel

Regardless of your martial arts training and experience or knowledge of specialist self-defence techniques, if you do not have the mindset, you are more likely to end up in conflict situations that could have been avoided, leading to physical altercations. Without the right mindset, your actions in dangerous situations might be ineffective – either fighting back without proper coordination, spending valuable energy very quickly, or freezing on the spot allowing your assailants complete control.

Adrenal Stress Training (AST)

Most people have not been exposed to effective ‘adrenal stress training’ and therefore have no idea how to handle the sort of adrenaline rush that real physical danger will bring. Legs shake, mouths dry up, bodies feel stuck on the spot, breathing is affected and, without the correct training, defence drills go out of the window.

Mushin Ryu Self-Defence

Mushin Ryu Self-Defence grew from the Chan School of Nunchaku‘s specialist ‘mindfulness’ programs. By combining knowledge of mental conditioning, mental pre-programming techniques, awareness training, diplomatic skills and combatives taken from a broad range of martial arts experience and training, Mushin Ryu Self-Defence has been designed to give you the skills you need for the real world, not just the ‘dojo’ or ‘training hall’.

The emphasis is placed on training participants to remain mindful so they can deflect and diffuse potential conflict as soon as the early signs are showing. If physical conflict is unavoidable, students are trained to act “pre-emptively” within the law to remove the threat quickly, efficiently and legally.

Vital ingredients

Whether through an intense course or our long-term syllabus, the Mushin Ryu Self-Defence method incorporates several key elements to ensure you are effectively equipped to keep yourself safe. These are:

  • Awareness/mindset/mental programming
  • The law and self-defence
  • Conflict avoidance and diffusion
  • Understanding human anatomy
  • Effective defensive manoeuvres / effective strikes
  • Weapons training (not firearms)
  • Improvised weapons

Our mission
