WHY THIS COURSE?

Today, a good self-defence course for women is unfortunately hard to find.

There is also often a lack of realism: there are combat sports where "scoring points" is the goal, there are traditional martial arts and there are systems that only work to a limited extent in reality and therefore only against an inexperienced attacker. This gives you a false sense of security.

What is also rarely discussed is cultivating the right mindset. Mental exercises that protect you from 'freezing' and help you not to hesitate when your life depends on it. Furthermore, most of the training you see today pushes you into a victim role with a focus on reaction (responding to an attack) rather than preemptive action. This course does this differently.

This self-defence course for women opts for realism and the optimal response in every situation.
From verbal de-escalation to effective counter-attacks when your life depends on it, and everything in between.

The training always takes place at your own pace and is very calm and safe. Our personal approach guarantees rapid knowledge transfer.

LEARN TO DEFEND YOURSELF WITH OPENJUTSU

“Learned more in a few lessons than in previous training years. I should have done these lessons right away to save a lot of time... in a short time you will learn a lot of useful principles and tactics here."

ZOË

"Unfortunately I had to put what I learned into practice… my body did what it was supposed to do, I got nothing, just maybe a bruise or two, and a lot of scare but that's it. The lessons probably saved my life... also mentally because I would have reacted completely differently before. I am really very grateful to you!

NONA

"I already took a few lessons with my daughter. I have already learned a lot and it makes me want more. It is a boost for self-confidence and you learn indispensable life skills. Recommended."

SJOEKE

“Very good teacher. I learned a lot in a short time at my pace. Every woman who likes to go out should take this course!”

PAULINE

“Calm instructor who helps you step-by-step to get the best out of yourself, with a touch of humor 🙂 I strongly recommend this course!”

MAÏTé

“It is not a macho lesson about fighting but really starts from your own strength as a woman. Everything feels natural. I was very pleasantly surprised about the content and the way of training!”

NISHA

“I had been looking for a reliable self-defence course for my daughter for a long time. If she goes out, I'm more relaxed now. Thank you!”

KIM

“During the first trial lesson I immediately discovered some handy methods to escape from multiple situations.”

LISELOTTE

“It gives me confidence that the lesson is given by a man, because I have already done techniques with a man.”

ZAYNEB

“This goes beyond self-defence, unseen fascinating. I wish I had discovered these lessons earlier.”

ANKE

“Awareness is central to this course. I am now more aware of my surroundings and how I can use my body weight against someone with more muscle power. Top!”

LEARN TO DO WHAT WORKS

QUESTION EVERYTHING

Many techniques are beautiful and fun in a sporting atmosphere or with an eye to imitating and exploring traditional styles, but are not usable on the street. Other techniques are way too complex or won't work against an experienced attacker (or under increased stress and anxiety!).

The women's self-defence lessons in this course combine the best of different styles with own insights. Result are extremely effective methods to protect you in realistic unpredictable situations and always in proportion to the threat.

Keep your mind open, always question everything. That is the OpenJutsu way.
