Children’s Self Defense Overview
Over the years I have had many martial arts instructors tell me it’s almost impossible to teach children self-defense techniques. They believe it’s so difficult they avoid it. So, what do they teach? My experience has been those other instructors teach basic blocks, kicks and punches. These instructors use lots of repetition or they paly games like dodgeball and tell the parents they are teaching their children how to avoid be punched. I wouldn’t pay for that and neither should you. If you want your children to really learn practical self defense then you need to explore my program for children. Oh by the way my children’s program has been used to teach children (thousands) since the early 1990’s.
So, what makes my program so effective. The simple answer is your child “understanding” what is going on when they are being pushed, grabbed or even punched. Your children are going to experience what a headlock is, they will learn what it feels like to be pushed. Your child will not be punching or kicking the air. They are going to experience real life situations so if they are attacked, they will recognize the attack. And will have an understanding of what is really happening to them. Your child will develop an understanding of how to respond if attacked.
Note: There are 10 sets each teaching 10 separate techniques, some techniques with variations. This means your child will learn 100 self defense techniques. Think of it this way – you are basically paying $1.00 per technique of instruction.
Note: I have also included review videos thus making review and retention fast and effective.
Junior Jiu Jitsu Program Bonus.
As a bonus I am going to include my Junior Jiu Jitsu starter program, something all children should learn.
Overview of each “Junior Self Defense Set”.
Note: there are 10 techniques in each set. Sets 1 through 5 are the basic skill set defensive moves. Sets 6 through 10 are variations of the basic skill set techniques.

A great starter set for defending against a weapons attack!!! Step by step with Coach Marty Martin as your child’s personal instructor.
Jr. Two Attackers Set
Bullies can bring their friends for backup! Are two of them going to push, grab or try to hit your child? There’s someone in front of and behind them at the same time, now what? They grab your child by the wrist and try to force them around – how do they get out of these situations? Let Coach Martin teach them how to apply the “small circle” of Kenpo Jiu Jitsu if they are grabbed. Discover how to turn one attacker against the other. Employ a simple way to kick one attacker and punch the other at the same time. Even protect themselves against more than one attacker – this is the “Jr. Two Attackers Set”.

It’s the beginning of the advanced material in Coach Martin’s Children’s Self Defense Training Series.
Jr. Self Defense Set Four
What if? At his point your child has learned skill set self defense but is now asking the “What if” question. What do I do if my attacker doesn’t do exactly what I thought they were going to? What if what I’m doing isn’t working? Well – don’t let the what if get the best of your child – let me teach them variations to many of the attacks and self-defense techniques from jr. self-defense set one and two. Learning these variations is a must for building their confidence and advancing their ability to adapt!
Jr. Punching Set Two
There is always more than one way to get the job done! “Punching Set Two” expands your child’s training at a more advanced level developing more confidence and giving them more options for handling that bully who tries to punch them.
