Our mission is clear: Provide interdisciplinary training to solve problems from 0-5ft with or without weapons. The Shivworks approach to self-defense is completely martial agnostic. We are not beholden to a singular type of martial arts. If the technique appropriately solves the problem, we will use it. Our meticulously designed curriculum prepares working professionals and everyday people for what might be the worst day of their lives. When you leave our training, you will be more prepared for a real-world challenge than when you started.
