Intense Defense

Intense Defense taught two seminars to my real estate office. All I can say is WOW! What a great eye opening lesson. We learned simple techniques to protect ourselves. I have a new sense of empowerment and feel confident that I could defend myself against a stronger attacker. We have asked Intense Defense to come back to our office to teach others that missed the seminar. This is definitely a MUST TAKE seminar! They have great personal safety items like pepper spray and stun guns also! I bought pepper spray for me, my daughter and her friends!

If you want to get some self-​defense training for yourself or someone that you care about, then stop looking any further and give Rod Scott from Intense Defense a call!
We own a boutique hair salon in Downtown Danville and after getting several harassing phone calls from a weirdo, we decided to get some self-​defense training for our entire staff, as we truly consider them all family. So the search began for a reputable trainer… and it went on for over a week just trying to get someone to call us back! Then I realized, why not try looking for a great instructor on Unilocal?And that’s where we found Rod Scott! He promptly returned our call on a Friday morning and scheduled a private session with all of our stylists for that following Monday morning! Rod was 10-​minutes early and did the training at our location, so he could see what challenges our specific location posed from a security perspective. I never would have thought of this, but as Rod explained, it doesn’t make much sense to hold self-​defense classes in a gym or studio environment, when instead he can come to your location and see things through the eyes of an attacker and then educate you on how to defend yourself accordingly!
Our 3-​hour class was incredible and all of our stylists left with the same high level of confidence that they are now empowered to protect themself in any situation. I should point out that in addition to Rod teaching you all of the various physical aspects, strategic moves and pressure points that will fend off a would-​be attacker, he also does 1 hour of common sense interactive lecture that really opens your eyes to how to eliminate yourself as a target in the first place and how to be MUCH more aware of your surroundings than what you are now… even if you thought you already were aware, trust me!
Bottom line, if you are truly interested in the best self-​defense training available for yourself or someone you care about, then give Rod Scott a call. There is no doubt that the 3-​hours you spend with him could be the difference between you becoming a statistic or not!
As a true testament to how great this class was, 3 of our stylists are scheduling classes for their family members to attend Rod’s training! Honestly, if we could have given Rod Scott 10-​Stars we would have!

Intense Defense — This was an informative and hands-​on self defense class. Rod Scott has an extensive background and is a great instructor. He discussed real-​life situations and offered suggestions making us all feel very informed and empowered by the end of the class — and we all broke boards on the first try! I would highly recommend this class!

This self-​defense course, geared specifically toward women, is exceptional. Rod Scott’s method of lecture (with helpful, and often comedic anecdotes), paired with hands-​on training and practice scenarios are well worth the 3-​hours of your time — if not more.
I particularly enjoyed getting to try out certain moves or tactics I wouldn’t otherwise have the opportunity to ‘test’, such as palm and knee strikes. Or even the scenario of having a 200+ pound attacker lying on top of you and how to use his strength against him. There are simply too many scenarios you can actually «predict» when in the face of an attacker, and the best thing you can do for yourself as a potential victim is have a plan. Whether it’s one small move, or the ability to react defensively (with little to no strength required), and to make yourself a harder target for your attacker.
This fun and highly informative course covers all bases, and I’m happy to recommend it to everyone — women of all ages, as well as men, who simply want to educate themselves on the importance of being aware of one’s surroundings and learning to respond assertively and defensively. I’m now considering taking Rod’s 6-​week course, as repetition of these defense tactics and conditioning your mind to react appropriately are key to staying safe.
…and yes, I successfully broke a board in half too!
