What is Senshido? By Georges Z. Fahmy, Senshido Affiliate Instructor – Greater Middle East Area
Senshido is a modern approach to Personal Protection (Self Defense) created in Canada, circa 1994, by Richard Dimitri.
Senshido teaches its participants on how to avoid, de-escalate, escape, and survive modern violence.
Although there are many systems out there that teach self defense, only a few teach their participants to protect themselves and their loved ones from all the aspects of violence, namely the Pre-Contact, Contact, and Post-Contact phases.
The Pre-Contact includes awareness training, fear/ anger/ adrenal management, evasion and escape tactics, understanding the criminal mind, tactical assessment of one's environment, and much more.
The physical aspect of violence or the Contact phase incorporates all forms of unarmed and armed combat, against one or more aggressors.
Finally, the Post-Contact phase discusses the legality of one's actions, talking to the Police, preventing revenge attacks, debriefing and analyzing the confrontation for enhancing one's survivability, etc.
Senshido can be instantly used, by anyone, regardless of size, height, weight, age, and strength, because:
1- We focus on the psychological-emotional-behavioral aspects first, elements that will allow you to "not be there" when trouble comes looking for you
2- We teach people to use their instinctive flinch reaction and gross motor skills, combined to concepts, strategies, tactics, and tools, to protect themselves and retaliate physically. Our motto is "Rather than provide technical aspects for people to use in specific situations, we provide analytical skills that will be useful in any situation"
3- We test it in full speed, full power, and intensive scenarios that replicate reality to the fullest. If it works under those conditions, then it works in real life.
Take care, and stay safe.
