More Info:
The Boca Raton classes are informal, free-flowing and adapt to your needs. Topics include:
  • Awareness, Tactics and Mindsetting for protecting yourself and loved ones
  • Combatives: a simple, quickly learned self-defense method based on World War II era military close combat courses
  • Modified Native American Groundfighting: very different from “grappling”—emphasizes mobility and destruction rather than control and submission
  • Weapons: cane, knife, gun, ANYTHING YOU GOT—practical methods of using and defending against all modern and improvised weapons
  • Conditioning: unique, healthy exercises gradually build up the body for combat
  • Guided Chaos: the principles and training methods that drive everything we do—balance, looseness, sensitivity, body unity and total freedom of action—cultivating internal martial attributes immediately applicable to self-defense

    Guided Chaos has been described as "Tai Chi On Steroids" and is also a superb low-impact and rehabilitative methodology for anyone interested in improving their balance, coordination and relaxation as well as their self-defense skills.

"Ari has trained hard over the years...I and the other master instructors have trained him especially for teaching...Ari has a natural talent for communicating Guided Chaos...I can't praise him enough...If you have the chance to train with Ari you will receive in depth understanding if you have the desire." --Grandmaster John Perkins

Student Review: "Ari,  thanks for the great class last night!  So cool to finally have a local [Guided Chaos] instructor. I think you are one of the best teachers. It's one thing to know your stuff and another thing to be able to teach it. You do a good job of both. We are honored to have you in our neck of the woods and I am looking forward to more trainings."
