Strikes on the Ground Training

To be an effective fighter, one must be able to strike an opponent from any position. Strikes on the ground training refers to techniques used in self-defense classes where practitioners engage in strikes while one or both individuals are on the ground. At Maximum Armour, this training focuses on developing the skills and strategies needed to effectively strike, defend, and control an opponent in a ground-fighting scenario.

Many practitioners of traditional martial arts who lack experience in ground-based striking become disoriented when a real fight moves to the ground. However, with proper training, these striking techniques can be effectively adapted for ground combat. Our personal safety training is designed to teach you how to maintain your combat effectiveness, no matter what position you're in.
