Board Breaking
We believe in training that helps to keep people fit. It's only when you know technique and you're athletic enough to do it correctly that you reach your full potential. At DK Self Defense, there is always a designated portion of training dedicated to physically enhancing your body. As such, we will push our students hard and help them get into a good physical shape. They may be sore from classes or be tired. Students will have access to hydration but they are also allowed to bring a water bottle if they choose that instead.
That being said, the last thing we want to happen is a student getting seriously hurt or injured. we never push a student beyond their limit and we're always willing to establish healthy boundaries to make sure nobody gets hurt in our classes. We respect all students for the effort they put into our classes and we will always maintain a level of maturity and never mock or shame any student. Any such acts will be faced with serious consequences.
At Dean Self Defense tutoring, your kid will learn how to defend themselves in combat situations. However, our students' number one goals should be to not get in a fight at all and as such, we will teach them about incident escalation and de-escalation to help them to never get in a fight in the first place. Also, our number 1 rule is that these techniques are only to be used if necessary and should never be used to harm those around them.
Nevertheless, it is important if all else fails to no how to defend you and those around you. Students will learn how to block, Strike, and grapple in a beneficial and realistic situation in ways that could harm someone. In addition, they will learn how to defend others around them. They will also be taught basic medical skills for treating injuries taught by a real EMT. These lessons are expected to be treated with absolute respect from all people involved and while we will teach students about respect and safety constantly, we recommend all students to pursue some form of standard at home.
Board breaking is a fun engaging sport that requires both great physical ability and technique. It's a skill that actually ends up helping in life in many different ways all around us. Here we view it as a fun hobby with many physical aspects to it that make it great for competition and just plain old fun.
