waiting list and we will hold the class sooner.
Long Beach's #1 Self Defense School
"Being the victim of a violent
crime, I learned moves and safety tips that could have prevented
what happened to me. I highly recommend your self defense class to
all women."
"Very realistic and effective! I
was uncomfortable at first, but the female instructors inspired me
to act. Thank you."
"Great class! Very informative and
helpful. I loved having different men as training partners. Now I
know the self defense techniques will work."
"Thank you for the awesome class
and for being so patient. I loved your scenarios, especially the one
where I learned how to escape when a man came up from behind to
choke me."
"Awesome class. I came scared and
left empowered. Thank you."

History
Founded in 1979, our Lakewood Budo Kai martial arts school has
offered Women's Self Defense classes in the Long Beach area for over
30 years. Our school is lead by Jim Kelton, our head instructor and
