Here at Hargrave Martial Arts Systems we have one goal and that is to keep you and your family safe from all of the evil doers that may come your way.
Carter hargrave is a triple Grandmaster ranked in seven martial art styles at black belt or higher levels. He had taught self defense for over eighteen years and has a martial arts resume of a man with a mission. His mission is to offer the most effective system to have you able to defend yourself in the shot=rtest amount of time. In the case of most martial arts and self defense systems it an take as much as two years before you have any real world abilities to fight off an aggressor. Carter Hargrave felt that this was way too long and for most people they need something and now. Many people don't take their safety seriously until a threat is in their face and they have no choice but to deal with it. Unfortunately the deal with it without any tools or training is most likely a beat down with injuries physical and psychological. That along with the time to heal away from school or work and you have a recipe for life long issues. It just should not be this way.
Carter Hargrave Statement on Self Defense
I had trained at many schools around the country and have seen many a student come to the chief instructor and explain a problem that they were having, usually a real threat that would be on them in a few days to a couple of months. The instructor would tell them they could help and enroll them. I would then see the instructor alone and they would say I wish they had come to me two years ago and maybe we could help that problem. This was the same story over and over at schools across the country. I thought to myself it was to bad no one could help the problem right then with some simple defensive moves and offer real solutions. After years of training I could see the flaws in each martial art and the way they were presented and in the way they were taught.
First all martial arts are not good for all things. One may be good for a tournament but suck at defense. And another may be good for defense and be sucky for competitions. And why does it take so long to get to a proficient level to keep from getting your butt kicked.
In the following pages of the two arts that I teach you will see how I modified the training, thinking, and tradition that kept quick results at bay. Oh and if you think other schools offer results or teaching style for quick quality results now in the age of modern technology and progressive thought well think again. Now am I saying that my distinct method will get you to black belt level in a year.... No. But I will get you defending yourself against bad guys in six months.
