PDS

Personal Defense System (PDS) is realistic martial arts training for today's world. It combines elements of various arts with the primary styles being Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Tae Kwon Do. Training in this program builds a well rounded individual who can be more confident in many situations. This system employs various options on how to deal with the different ranges of confrontation including verbal, kicking, punching, close and grappling.

Bag, pad & partner training are the ingredients for a physically demanding workout. As with all programs offered at Ryoma Academy, a high priority is placed on fitness, both physical and psychological. However, everyone is an individual and therefore works and progresses at his or her own rate. This system follows the same path as other martial arts with short range goals of colored belt promotions leading the way to the long range goal of black belt. But always remember ... the destination is never as important as the journey.
