Defence Lab is a martial arts and self defence system that is taking the world by storm! It is the scientific study of the mental and physical aspects of self-defence and reality-based combat. It is free-thinking and constantly evolving and has been developed over two decades of research, pressure testing and investigation.

We cater for martial arts for kids and martial arts for women and run a number of classes for all ages and abilities from our bases in Worcester Park, Croydon, Teddington, Surbiton and Morden.

Our Defence Lab classes are taught by teachers who are passionate about the benefits of our martial arts system and why it works. In today’s world, people are rarely attacked by a single person, so we teach the art of defending yourself against multiple attackers from all types of positions, from the ground upwards.  Our system is modelled on three steps:

  • 1 – Learn it: Our students are first taught how a technique works.
  • 2 – Fatigue it: This is where our students drill and train the moves to grow muscle memory.
  • 3 – Stress it out: We teach out students how to perform under stress, through sparring, scenario combat and stress drills.
