“This is the 2nd workshop I’ve organised with the London Self Defence Academy. Ondrej and Sam are a dream to work with and their sessions are informative, fun and always go down a treat.”

“Great experience. Sam taught a lot of techniques in the time we had as well as ran through relevant scenarios and laws, which was super helpful. Fab attitude to teaching too.”
