What Questions Should You Ask Before Joining a Self-Defense Gym?

Before joining, ask:

  1. What real-world problem does this training solve?
  2. Is legality part of the curriculum?
  3. How is stress introduced?
  4. Is there structured progression?
  5. What is expected long term?
  6. Is restraint emphasized?

Clear answers indicate clear standards.

Vague answers indicate unclear training philosophy.

The safest students are those trained to think — not just react.
