Empowered Defence Centre

About Us

At Empowered Defence Centre, we believe self-defence should be practical, adaptable, and accessible for everyone. Our system is not tied to a single martial art. Instead, we draw from a wide range of disciplines, selecting only the most effective techniques—ones that are simple to learn, easy to remember, and proven to work under real-world conditions.

The skills portion of our training is designed to go beyond memorizing movements. We focus on building true muscle memory and recall under stress, so when your body enters fight-or-flight mode, your techniques are instinctive and reliable.

Progress is built into our program. Our progressive level system introduces increasingly diverse scenarios and more complex skills as you advance, ensuring you are always challenged and continually growing.

Self-defence isn’t just about physical techniques. Each class also includes discussion on personal safety concepts, preventative strategies, and proactive, non-physical skills that can help you avoid danger in the first place. You’ll also benefit from improved strength, speed, agility, and mobility—physical qualities that can greatly enhance your ability to protect yourself.

Most importantly, our training is delivered in a supportive, welcoming environment where you can have fun, build community, and develop lasting confidence—both in your skills and in yourself.
