Most martial arts you see online rely on your attacker cooperating. In real life, you need techniques that work when you are under stress.

My students and I recreate these "bullshido" moves to show what not to do, and to have a little fun while learning.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/9c5b9690-7123-4300-a9f8-d11e25ca42b0)

In this funny reel, my students try it out and we show what really happens when you try a technique that has no basis in reality.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/929a9606-e87c-4538-a1ad-895aff7b9f3b)

## About No-Nonsense Training: Real vs. Fake

If a technique requires your attacker to stand still while you perform a complex movement, it is not self-defense. In my sessions, we discard these flashy moves and focus on ground survival and defensive striking that keep you safe when things turn chaotic.

You might have seen videos of people disarming attackers with a simple touch or a specific finger hold. These techniques belong in movies, not in real fights. In reality, your adrenaline will spike and your fine motor skills will drop, meaning you need simple, gross motor movements to protect yourself. I emphasize scenario-based training at my Sector 46 dojo. We practice defending against back grabs or being pushed to the ground because that is where danger often starts. My goal is to help you overcome the freeze response. We do not use complex katas here. We use boxing basics, Muay Thai, and Jiu-Jitsu fundamentals that work even when you are tired or scared. If you are looking for a place that values hard work over shortcuts, you are in the right place.
