Learn Practical Techniques for Everyday Safety with Ohio Self Defense Academy

Empowering Adults and Children Through Self Defense

“I believe jiu-jitsu is the number one self-defense. It is all about learning technique and leverage, and anybody can learn it. Jiu Jitsu is a human chess game. It's all about being one step ahead of your opponent. It requires you to critically think about where you are and where you want to be. It is a physical metaphor for life.”

- Head Instructor, Tony Rinaldi
