What is Edged Weapons Overview - short video

EDGED WEAPONS OVERVIEW

Stay Safe Martial Arts Academy

You do not need any prior experience with martial arts or weapons to attend.

Your training scenarios will be recorded, and the video will be made available for your future review to help you develop your training.
You will also be granted 3 months of access to our online community, where we post lots of additional content.

Edged Weapons Overview introduces the fundamental realities of knife fights (offense and defense) and consists of 16 training hours over two days.

Real-world criminal assaults are used to contextualize the presented material and provide the participant with practical skills to avoid, stabilize, and resolve an edge weapon-related incident.

The program is straightforward and consistent, allowing anyone to learn and apply the techniques immediately.

Each day concludes with an optional force-on-force scenario to pressure-test and validate the training.

The experience reinforces your newly acquired skill set and provides an opportunity to apply techniques without the consequences of a real-life incident.

Attending a Shivworks course is a significant investment of time and money – not only for the participant but also for the hosts and the instructors. Courses fill up quickly, and unexpected cancellations significantly strain our niche, bespoke program. Therefore, we have a strict refund policy for every course. If you have enrolled in a class and are unable to attend, please contact us immediately.

All times are local for the training location.

Payment installment option - You may provide a deposit to secure your spot and split the cost into two payments; however, the deposit is non-refundable. The final payment is due one day prior to the start of the course.

A gym fee of $40 in cash is due to the host of the training facility.

More than 30 Days Before Class

If a student cancels more than 30 days prior to a class, the student’s tuition will be refunded in full.

30 Days Before Class

If a student cancels anywhere between 10 and thirty days before class, that student’s tuition is not refundable. However, the tuition can be applied to another Shivworks class. This tuition credit must be used within 18 months of the original class date, or it is forfeited. If a cancellation occurs within 10 days, tuition is forfeited, and no credit will be applied.

10 Days Before Class

If a student cancels 10 days (or less) before a class, that student’s tuition is forfeited and cannot be applied to any other class.

ShivWorks Cancellations

If Craig Douglas has to cancel a class for any reason, all students enrolled in that class will receive full refunds.
