Confidence. Control. Real-World Self Defence.

A System Based On Control

At A.C.T. (Act Self Defence), we believe that effective self-defence should prioritise control over aggression or submission. Rather than relying on strikes or attempting to overpower an opponent, our approach focuses on maintaining composure and using practical techniques to manage confrontations. Our system is designed to equip individuals with the skills needed to safely navigate encounters with an attacker, or even in situations involving small group aggression, by emphasising calm, confident control and measured responses.

'My initial aim for A.C.T. was to work with Tom to create the most efficient and simple way of dealing with violent subjects. I then quickly realised that the simple objective it offers means this concept can be used in any environment.'
