About
Duer’s ATA Martial Arts is committed to providing women with the skills and basic knowledge of self-defense. Our Women’s Self-Defense training will help each participant avoid becoming a victim. The course teaches personal security steps and guides participants in understanding predatory actions of the assailant and developing a prevention mindset.
The instruction format of the course provides opportunities to learn and practice the tools women would need if attacked by a predator. Our staff is knowledgeable and sensitive in teaching awareness and encouraging confidence as we work with women of all ages and physical abilities. The intention of the program is not to alarm participants or create anxiety, but rather to equip women with awareness and the skills to avoid or redirect danger and, if necessary, defend themselves in dangerous situations. Our mission is to help you feel empowered!
While an initial course experience is beneficial, it is important to participate in follow-up courses to enhance your ability to react under pressure. What a great way to get your mothers, sisters, aunts, grandmothers and friends involved in a physical training program while increasing your confidence and personal well-being. This is truly the best gift you can give a loved one. Please join us in our efforts to empower women.

DEVELOPING MORE THAN JUST WINNING ATHLETES
We Teach Life Skills that your child will learn and be with them for the rest of their lives. A great foundation makes a great person. We teach what you teach at home.
Discipline
is to obey what is right. It means to practice good habits. And what are good habits? Simply put, they are behaviors that make us better human beings. Discipline begins with obedience. When we are children we must obey our parents, teachers and mentors, since they are the ones who are responsible to show us the right path.
Belief
is having the “YES I CAN” attitude always and no matter what. It is the ability to see the invisible and look beyond the obvious. Belief is our inner power used with our core values towards the fulfillment of our goals. Absolutely everything we do in our lives, in fact, is based on our beliefs. Every action we take, every decision we make, and every single thing we do stems from what we believe. If we believe this, we do that; if we believe something else, we do something different.
Communication
is how we relate to ourselves and everything around us. It is so important that the success of a society depends on how well it communicates. The word communication comes from the word “common”, which means “equal”. This means that in order to communicate with each other, we must find common ground. To ensure this, our communication must be seen, heard and felt.
Respect
ourselves means doing things that are good for us. For example, like taking care of our bodies both mentally and physically, educating ourselves and finding mentors to help us improve our lives. Self-respect also means thinking positively, making the right choices, and caring for our possessions and our personal appearance. When we show self-respect, others learn that they must also treat us with respect.
Self-Esteem
is the joy of being who we are. It describes how we see and value ourselves. When we feel good about ourselves – independent of the circumstances that surround us – we show self-esteem. We can build our self-esteem by making a choice to see everything in our lives positively. This way, in time, we develop a positive attitude towards life.
Honesty
is the first step to a rewarding life. To be honest is to obey our conscience. It means to have the courage to confront the consequences of our actions no matter what price we may have to pay. It is to take responsibility for our actions and to be accountable.
