I'm interested in starting an IMA study group in the Charlotte/Gastonia area of North Carolina.
The focus of the group will be to strip down the art(s) to barebone essentials, tactics, and strategies with an eye towards realistic practical application of principles. This is an exploratory effort aimed towards combining self-defense, increasing pressure, and intuitive creativity. Anyone with at least a basic IMA foundation and who are willing to collaborate are highly desired.
Though pressure will be scaled, it will be (potentially) contact heavy. However, I am looking to create a safe yet honest environment. If you've ever wanted to get truly functional and haven't had the opportunity this might be what you are looking for. Any interested parties should PM me for more information.
