Self Defense Woodstock GA


If you look at martial arts as a whole, you will see that almost all arts share one or more of 4 basic ranges that they will focus on. Some systems will focus on one area or range of fighting more than others, but each range is in existence because they are a universal truth in combat, meaning that regardless of the art / system, they are a reality that cannot be denied or ignored. You will end up in one or all of them at some time while fighting.

Some examples of the 4 basic ranges are: Long Range Weapons, Kickboxing (striking) range, Pummeling (standing grappling) range and a ground fighting or grappling range. If your goal is to be a complete combat artist, you will want to do some training in each of the 4 basic ranges. This is generally referred to as cross training. Cross training will increase your ability to stay in your element if in a fight and will increase your ability to force your opponent out of his if he is not as well educated or trained in the different ranges.

This is one of the reasons for the choice of systems and the arrangement of the schedule at AMAC, to offer the opportunity for those interested in cross training to do so in an intelligent and safe way.

The Atlanta Martial Art Center is located in Woodstock GA and offers programs in Gracie Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Thai Boxing, Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do, Filipino Kali, No GI grappling, self-defense and more. for more information you can call the school at 770-926-3030 or check us out on line at atlantamartialartscenter.com.
