KICKSTART IN A NUT SHELL


  • An upgrading competencies and character building course specially design for everybody. This program will embedded the practical self-defence tactic with an effective combat technique. A ‘KICKSTART Streetwise Approach’ is introduced because it is deemed relevant with the current situation, easy to master and suitable to anyone age up to 70 years old.

  • KICKSTART is an approach to a Personal Safety and Self-Defence application. Knowledge acquired worth nothing if one do not know how to apply.  It is a combination of a many Personal Safety Tactics, Tips and Combat Martial Art Techniques.  Overall, it emphasized on the learning by experience methodology because it will developed better understanding and create a greater confidence level.

  • The art of facing dangerous situation and to stay alive mainly depend on the mental strength (80%) rather than physical abilities (20%). The top-most priority will be the skill to manage fear and panic attacked. Keeping a healthy lifestyle (avoiding drug, alcohol, sufficient sleeping hours) and continuous physical exercises ensure a good muscle memory and effective reflexes.

  • The main objective of this training course is to provide the officers with the life saving skill, enhance fear management capabilities, and understand the limitation of an act/react, fostering effective teams and a paradigm shift of attitude to become a better person in life.

  • The firm that advises the community to help manage violence; survival rules to protect you and your family from crime. Whether it is learned the easy way or hard way, the truth remains that your safety is yours.
 
  • Self-defence is not the same as fighting, fighting is a mutual combat. There are only two rules of self-defence.
          1) AVOIDANCE 

          2) SURVIVAL 

  • Self-defence involves repelling an assault or protecting another individual, winning the fight is a means to an end, not a goal in itself, your goal is to escape the situation without being hurt, not to batter someone; create a window of opportunity so you can escape.
