Self Defense
Self Defense is one of the world's oldest methods of fitness of both the body and mind. Here at Brickhouse Gym, we offer two different types of self defense classes to harness this discipline. The Victims of Crime School of Self Defense focuses on building confidence in yourself while developing the ability to defend yourself against criminal attack. The Isshinrya Karate Kai classes teach students a popular form of martial arts that stresses mental clarity as much as physical strength.Victims of Crime School of Self Defense
