Which martial art should a person study to learn effective self defense? We believe the best training is found in a comprehensive, complete system that offers instruction in all aspects of true self defense.
Founded in Lexington, Kentucky in 1988, Griswold's Self Defense teaches self defense because Evil never takes a vacation. We offer instruction in Kiyojute Ryu Kempo, for those who want more vigorous, but safe, training and Tsung Shih Tai Chi Chuan for those who want a gentler approach. Many students study both methods because they are complimentary arts and reinforce each other. Even though serious assaults require appropriate measures, we emphasize the use of the minimum physical force necessary to ensure personal safety.
Kiyojute Ryu Kempo is a complete martial arts system teaching the full range of defensive skills including striking, kicking, throwing, joint locking, weapons use and more esoteric skills. The training methods are those found in the most ancient martial arts and are geared toward the rapid development of effective self defense skill.
Tsung Shih Tai Chi Chuan, combines balance and strength enhancing exercise with comprehensive self defense movements.
These vast systems offer a lifetime of practice and learning. Serious Training in these methods develops real self-defense capabilities and compassion.
