Canada's Own Martial art
Did you know that Canada has a Martial Art of its own? Sensei Terry was taught Defendo
(and its more aggressive big brother, Combato) by his dad, Maurice Kingsbury when he was
growing up. During WWI, Bill Underwood developed his own style of hand-to-hand combat -
Combato - which he later taught to soldiers and spies! Sound intriguing? This unique
art has evolved from its military roots to the present-day incarnation pioneered by
Canadian Use of Force Systems known as Immediate Recall High Stress Combatives.
Stronger You is the only location in Ottawa to offer this course.
Classes resume September. |
