After being a practitioner of Karate for 20 years and being taught, so called, Self Defence, I discovered Sensei David and the Adaptive Karate and Self Defence Academy. I was immediately impressed that here was real and practical Self Defence for real situations.

I have been studying under Sensei David for 12 months and have a background of Karate in another style. This Academy is truly superior in practical methods for the street

This Academy is for the real situations requiring Self Defence. This is not a Sporting Academy but one that combines Ju-Jitsu and Karate Bunkai for the street

I was privileged recently to be in a class of Self Defence Instructed by Sensei David Bernard. His techniques for dealing with street conflicts are awesome. .

I have been involved with Martial Arts for many years and was recently in a class taught by AKASDA Chief Instructor David Bernard. The techniques he taught were totally effective in every instant regardless of the size of one's opponent. I can't recommend this Academy highly enough.
