3-Hour Muscle Memory Workshop - 16-Hour Advanced Basics
- Defense Against the Armed Assailant
Those of us who are IMPACT Basics graduates know IMPACT is not just about self-defense. IMPACT goes beyond safety issues to creating the life that we desire. In the Advanced Classes students frequently are moving beyond fear of assault and feelings of safety, to enjoying being powerful and confident. These classes are are an opportunity to steep oneself in the IMPACT community where people are choosing the lives they want and enthusiastically supporting others. Advanced classes help students to more consciously connect what they want in life and the choices they are making.
3-Hour Muscle Memory Workshop
Basics graduates gather and practice scenarios from Basics. No new skills are taught, just Basics skills reviewed. This class is a great refresher when students want to know whether their skills are indeed in muscle memory, or want to reconnect with IMPACT support. Maybe recommended or required before taking Advanced Basics, per instructor.
Muscle Memory Workshop is open to graduates of the Basics Course. The cost for this course is $55.

Defense Against the Armed Assailant Class
The most common questions students ask involve handling an armed assailant. Knives and guns are powerful tools of control and add an additional level of risk and fear to any situation. Learn the fundamentals for dealing with confrontations involving an armed assailant. The class de-mystifies the threat of weapons and those who use them. The limitations and range of danger are covered for each weapon.
Learn to:
- Control the weapon
- Quickly and decisively cause pain to the attacker
- Continually maintain control of the weapon while fighting back
- Safely handle the weapon after the fight is over.
This advanced course is open to graduates of Advanced Basics, and requires instructor approval.
