Self-Defense
Effective, hands-on training for everyone from absolute beginners to black belts
Central CT's source of elite BJJ since 2002, offering both Gi and No-Gi training
The only place in Connecticut where you can work up a sweat training the highly athletic French style of Kickboxing
The Ultimate Self-Defense program includes it all: kickboxing, grappling, weapons, multiple assailant training, and MUCH more!
Our single most essential mission since opening our doors in 2002 has been to provide our community with the absolute BEST hands-on, no-nonsense self-defense training possible. We're so confident that we offer best training, that starting back in September of 2005, the Modern Self-Defense Center has offered a free self-defense class EVERY WEEK.
We've decided to up the ante.
Instead of one weekly 30-minute class, we'd now like to offer you 30 Days of free training with us. That's right--a whole month of classes to learn as much as you can with us--without spending a penny. We're completely serious. In fact, we'll even start you off with a FREE private lesson, 1-on-1 with our instructors.
Our goal, since we opened, has been to serve our community's self-defense needs with the absolute pinnacle of instruction: realistic answers, expertly designed programs, and training that makes you safer when you walk out our door than when you walked in, even on your first day.
We seek our own professional training from the world's best: everyone from kickboxing champions to MMA fighters, and from Martial Arts Grandmasters to little-known experts. Chris Wright-Martell and MSDC and have been on the NBC evening news, the ABC.com homepage, and on bookstore shelves nationwide in our first book (Knack: Self-Defense for Women). He has taught public, private, government, and university-based groups of every size and in every setting how to fight back to protect themselves, their friends, and their families.
We'd love to find out what we can do for you. We encourage you to take advantage of our 30 Day FREE offer, as well as a FREE private lesson and consultation to find out what programs are the best match for your unique personal needs. Contact us today to come meet with us and start moving closer to your goals.
