Seminars



Arakan Martial Art® hosts real-world seminars that existing students of private lessons or group classes are invited to attend. These seminars supplement your child’s normal training and are specifically designed to mimic ‘real life’ situations. This experiential type training is contained in a controlled environment, and enables your child to practice their skills and techniques to ingrain a ‘response to stimulus’ that they may one day be exposed to.

Real-World Training

Arakan Martial Art® private lessons and group classes teach your child proper techniques as well as build their interpersonal and social skills. These seminars build on your child’s existing skill set, by adapting them to real-life situations and environments. This style of training allows your child to become dynamic, adaptable and capable of ensuring the safety and wellbeing of themselves and others.

During these seminars your child will learn to protect themselves against potential grabs, punches, kicks, and tackles, in an experiential way. Your child’s awareness will ultimately become more heightened, and their ability to identify a potential situation will increase. Scenario based training also increases your child’s threshold and prepares them emotionally and mentally should a situation occur in real life.

Arakan Martial Art® hosts numerous seminars for their existing junior students that cater to various ‘potential situations’.

Anti-Abduction Seminar

Our Anti-Abduction seminar is offered to students aged 5 to 12 years, and is designed to teach your child how to protect themselves against a potential abduction. We ‘role play’ scenarios and teach your child how to effectively and efficiently protect themselves in this situation. At the very least, this will give them a fighting chance. They get the opportunity to practice their skills and techniques on instructors of various sizes and shapes and in different surroundings, such as a playground or car park, to mimic a potential ‘real life’ situation.

Junior Training Days

Junior Training Days hosted in the past have focused on building skills sets and techniques that your child will be able to use in various scenarios. They learn awareness and effective self defence skills against punches, kicks, grabs, bullying and tackles, in a safe and controlled environment. This type of training raises your child’s threshold, boosts their confidence and ingrains their response to stimulus.

Teen Night Club Seminar

Our Teen Night Club Seminar is designed for teenagers approaching 18 years of age who are potentially getting ready to ‘hit the party scene’ or stay out late. This seminar is held in a real night club that we reserve solely for this seminar. The atmosphere, loud music and lights ensure the environment is realistic, allowing us to role play real-life scenarios that teach your child effective self protection in a controlled environment.

Your child will learn to defend themselves against numerous situations such as a potential ‘glassing situation’, close quarter skill sets, multiple attackers and emotionally intense nightclub situations. They will learn how to defuse potentially threatening situations, deal with drunk or disruptive patrons, whilst also increasing their situational awareness.

The Many Benefits Of Junior Martial Art Seminars

All of the junior seminars are designed to keep your child safe when they venture out into the world without you.

Arakan Martial Art® seminars teach your child to be responsible, and more capable of looking after themselves, their friends and loved ones in any situation. Their self-esteem and confidence will increase, and they will feel empowered and able to protect themselves effectively in real-life situations.

At Arakan we believe every child has the right to feel safe and secure at all times. Our goal is to empower children with the skills and techniques they need to ensure their safety and wellbeing. We provide a safe, friendly and fun environment where students can learn self-protection techniques, empowerment, confidence, focus and discipline.

Arakan Martial Art® seminars are available exclusively to students undertaking private lessons or junior group classes. They are available in a large number of areas around Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast and Perth.

My son Deklan is a naturally kind and gentle boy, who as an only child has never had to endure the competition and ruff and tumble of other siblings. Reading how daunting and challenging schools can be these days I was very keen to get him involved in self defense but wasn’t sure what was going to be the best fit for him.

In a chance encounter at a community fate we saw the Arakan stand and after talking to the guys I was really impressed with how friendly the team was and how passionate they were to get Deklan into his first lesson. And here is the part that grabbed me the most, the training is done outdoors in parks and school grounds while wearing shirts and shorts and everyday shoes, now that’s real life training. We booked in straight away for our complimentary lesson and Deklan couldn’t wait to get started.

On the day of his first lesson Deklan was quite nervous but Ryan his instructor made him feel completely relaxed and the lesson was a great mix of training and learning through fun games. At the end of the lesson Deklan ran straight up to me and asked if he could do more training tomorrow and the next day, which was a sure sign he loved it. He has now been training for over 3 years and as much as Arakan is about learning self defense and getting fit I have seen Deklan grow in confidence, co-ordination, self respect and self belief. 

Deklan now jumps at every opportunity to do extra lessons and group training and he totally loves going to school holiday training days and he wears his Arakan uniform with absolute pride.

I can honestly say I have been totally impressed with how Arakan has taught him practical, useable skills in real life environments and we look forward to many more years involvement with the Arakan family.
