Athletic or casual clothing works fine. No special gear required. Just show up ready to move.

Practical Skills.
Real Results.

Jim Lentz teaches every self-defense session. His approach focuses on the handful of skills that actually matter when something goes wrong: how to get out of a bad situation, how to protect yourself and the people with you, and how to stay calm enough to use any of it.

Classes are held every Saturday from 1:45 to 2:30pm in the Dojo. Members get in free. Public tickets are $15, which also covers the 1pm fitness class.
