Here’s what we do in Tū Toa - Personal Protection System
We teach you that self-defence means doing everything possible to avoid fighting someone who threatens or attacks you.
Self-Defence is all about using your smarts and your speed—not necessarily your fists.
We explain situational awareness and how it refers to ‘awareness’ of the ‘situation.’ "Situational Awareness" is the correct term for the field of study that concerns the knowledge and understanding of the environment that is critical to those who need to make decisions in complex areas.
Students will learn to reconnect and trust their natural instincts; we teach "mahia ngā rongo" (utilise your senses)
Rongo-ā-karu = Sight
Rongo-ā-taringa = Sound
Rongo-ā-ihu = Smell
Rongo-ā-waha = Taste
Rongo-ā-pā = Touch
Rongo-ā-puku = Animal Instinct
You will learn a multitude of actual skills through drills that will enable you to evade or escape dire threats and scary situations.
We will teach you how to remain calm when presented with threats to optimise your ability to think clearly and practically.
