About ESDS – Simplicity. Impact. Survival.

A real-world self-defence system built on instinct, not tradition.

Explosive Self Defence System (ESDS)

The goal of ESDS is to give each participant maximum self-defence skills in the shortest possible time of training.

The Explosive Self Defence System (ESDS) is a simple method of protecting yourself, based solely on human behaviour. It is not a martial art, although it is practiced by many Martial Artists. It has none of the complexities which usually accompany martial arts. It certainly has no hidden depths: what you see is all there is to it.

There are no secrets in ESDS; it is simple because it has to be.ESDS is easily learned and easily retained. More importantly, because of itssimplicity and its scenario based training methods; it is also easily recalled in the adrenaline charged turmoil of a real confrontation.

Our methods enable people of all ages and sizes to hit hard.All we do is develop the ability to strike powerfully and assertively, so that in the eventuality that you have to fight, you do so hard and fast; thus the fight ends very quickly, with a minimum of damage to both you and the adversary -in this modern, litigious age that fact alone can be important to a great many people.
