PERSONAL SELF DEFENSE
We are offer regular small group and private self defense classes in Silverdale, Auckland, New Zealand. We can also run small group or private classes at your place or business anywhere in New Zealand.
In our classes there is a focus on technique and application in real world situations. Techniques are based on using the human body as its own defensive weapon. No weaponry is used or taught, however we are teaching how to disarm someone from weapons such as knives, guns and sticks. We are providing skills so that anyone can physically and psychologically defend themselves in situations such as family violence, abduction, rape, aggression in pubs, shop assistants, runners out alone in the bush or being out after dark.
Our facility is a REP's Registered Exercise Facility which means we meet New Zealand and international standards to deliver safe and effective exercise advice to you.

HumanWeapon doesn't treat self defense as an expensive, time-consuming hobby, or a fitness class. Our training courses are designed to fit into your life, so you have a set of fundamental techniques that you can use in real world situations. All techniques are designed to be easy to learn, and effective in a range of situations. Practice sessions enable to you to keep your tools at hand without expensive on-going costs.
Martial Art schools, boxing studios, fitness gyms, Krav Maga classes ... we respect all those gyms and clubs that teach skills based sports and hobbies. But we know that's not for everyone, and they often don't teach practical self-defense that anyone can use. HumanWeapon is a training facility, yes you can call us a gym, we call it a training studio as its just for people who want to learn serious skills that they can use anywhere, anytime, and against anyone who may become aggressive. Short courses give you all the basic essential skills without having to commit to expensive, and on-going sports based training but allow repetition of skills so that recall under pressure or stress becomes second nature.
Our training system is based on real-world situations, and scenarios that may be encountered locally (yes right here in New Zealand) or when travelling abroad.
We are proud of the system that's been developed by HumanWeapon. Techniques have been modified or developed from military based techniques so that they are relevant for civilian use in real-world situations like street attacks, rape, domestic violence, bullying etc.
