Power of One says it all. Learn to protect yourself, and your loved ones, with techniques that are developed specifically for street defense. Coach Porter has developed this program over his 40+ years of training and coaching.

Having trained many law enforcement and military personnel, the Power of One Self-Defense Series has evolved into a very effective, functional system of self-protection. Knowing a one-day or weekend

self-defense program is inadequate and non-practical, this series is set up over the course of four, eight-week programs.

Practicing and perfecting functional techniques each week will help make the techniques instinctive to the participant, making it usable in a high-stress environment like personal protection. In the case it is needed, and in today’s environment that potential need is increasing, a person needs to be able to call upon their self-defense tools quickly and effectively in a stressful situation. This self-defense series will equip the individual to do just that.

Each Series in the program will focus on a specific aspect of self-defense. Each series is offered once a year and can be taken in ANY order and can be taken repeatedly.

Series 1: Striking and Defense (January 15 – March 4)

 Situational Awareness, Verbal De-escalation, Footwork, Gap Control, Blocking/Parrying, Striking, Scenario Training

Series 2: Standing Grappling Defense (March 11 – April 29)

 Defense against Grabs, Chokes, Bearhugs, Headlocks, Charging Attacks. Breakfalls, Scenario Training

Series 3: Ground Grappling Defense (May 6 – July 1)

 Positional Defense and Escapes, Chokes and Locks, Scenario Training

Series 4: Weapons Defense (July 15 – September 16)



 Energy Drills, Stick Work, Split Range. Bat, Stick, Knife, Gun Defense. Scenario Training

To continue perfecting your effectiveness, a self-defense class will be added to the Mugen Martial Arts schedule. If certification in the Power of One Self-Defense System is something you desire, that can be achieved during future testing opportunities.

ASJM Competition Results!

On Saturday, October 21st , the Mugen Team competed in the American Sport Jujitsu Nationals. Six team members competed, Ty Rockwell, Mike Jura, Kyle Farr, Malachi Bradway, Brance VanDyke, and Dominick Wolcott. The team represented the system, the school and themselves very well, with a combined 4 Gold Medals, 1 Silver Medal and 1 Bronze Medal.

More importantly, they conducted themselves as Martial Artist with a respect for their opponents, the competition and themselves. Ty Rockwell won his Gold Medal in the Advanced Adult Division, showing his technical abilities. Mike Jura won Gold in the Adult Intermediate Division. He faced his teammate, Kyle Farr in the finals. This match went into overtime, it couldn’t have been scripted any better. Two teammates that train together and help each other in every class go into overtime to determine the winner!

This is Mike’s second Gold Medal in two consecutive tournaments and Kyle represented himself well in his first tournament. Brance Vandyke won the Youth Intermediate division, a repeat of his Gold Medal in the Summer tournament. Dominick Wolcott in his first tournament appearance won the Gold Medal in the

Youth Beginner Division. Malachi in his first tournament, battled back from an early loss to take third place, well done! All of these Mugen competitors train very hard and deserve all of their successes.

Keep training hard!

If you are interested in competing in the next tournament, please let Coach Porter

know. The next tournament is tentatively scheduled for April!

Well done Team Mugen!
