Would You Know What To Do If Faced With A Hand-To-Hand Combat Situation?

Imagine you’re out with some friends, having a good time, when someone decides to start trouble. What if they singled you out and were hell-bent on doing you serious harm? Would you know what to do? Is there anything you could do?

Many people face situations like this all the time, but sadly, wind up becoming the victim instead of the victor because they lacked the necessary skills that could’ve gotten them out of trouble.

While it might seem hokey at first to suggest martial arts as reasonable defense (thanks in large part to the over-choreographed martial arts flicks) there are fighting systems that are designed specifically for actual combat situations. Don’t believe me? Just watch any MMA competition and ask yourself what those guys are using to take down and submit their opponents.

Chances are, they’re using some form of Jiu-Jitsu. Jiu-Jitsu is a fighting technique and martial art that specializes in using leveraging to defeat an opponent. These leveraging techniques are especially effective against larger, stronger opponents and, when combined with choke holds and take downs, have proven to be extremely effective in unarmed combat. Jiu-Jitsu teaches you how to get your opponent on the ground and then defeat him.

If you’re interested in being prepared for any situation, and would like to learn the art of Jiu-Jitsu, learning from a real master is the only way to go.

William Vandry is a true Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu master, having earned the rank of 2nd degree black belt. William studied under under legendary BJJ Master, Carlos Machado and his brothers in Brazil. William was also one of the first Texans to receive a black belt under Machado, and his training helped him win two silver medals and one gold in the Pan American World Championships.

Today, William owns and teaches at the Vandry BJJ Academy, located in Austin, TX. The Vandry BJJ Academy is one of the premiere academies for learning both Jiu-Jitsu and Muay Thai, which is taught by Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu brown belt and undefeated MMA competitor Robby Rabadi.

It doesn’t matter whether you have any martial arts training – or any fighting training – or not because Vandry Academy accepts people from all skill levels, even children, and they provide a safe, non-intimidating environment so that everyone is able to learn and retain the skills.
