About NICOLAS
"Everyone has a plan until the first punch in the face" - Mike Tyson.
That says it all.
Aggression is not mathematical reasoning, where to a given attack I bring the corresponding defense.
The characteristic of an attack is that it occurs when you least expect it, and that it does not respond to any code, any rule.[ N]
Self-defense is dealing with the unpredictable.
Mental, psychological, physiological, physical and technical preparation for street violence.
Far from the fantasy of the choreographed action movie, the fight for survival has nothing aesthetic about it. It's quite the opposite. The more beautiful the sequences are visually, the less applicable they are in the event of aggression.
Any technique, before being taught, must be tested under pressure, and at a very high heart rate, to get closer as much as possible from a state of fear. Otherwise, it is pure speculation.
Psychological, environmental and behavioral knowledge of street violence are also essential to deliver a teaching close to reality.
It is in this spirit , based on so-called "combative" (ex: Lee Morrison) and close combat learning methods, which my practice of martial arts and combat sports naturally adapted to be as realistic as possible.

J'ai eu la chance de faire un petit cours de self-défense improvisé avec Nicolas et j'en garde un super souvenir !
Je n'ai pas retrouvé d'autres ateliers depuis mais si je reviens en région parisienne j'aimerais beaucoup refaire un ! Il nous met en confiance et il est très pédagogue. Même si je n'ai fait qu'un cours avec lui je me sens déjà plus confiante si un jour je dois me défendre !J'ai pris des cours avec Nicolas pour apprendre à mieux gérer mes émotions et avoir davantage confiance en moi. Je cherchais aussi à dompter ma peur et notamment la gestion des risques. Ces cours m'ont beaucoup aidée, car Nicolas est pédagogue, patient et qu'il fait vraiment du sur-mesure pour ses élèves.
Bonjour,
Je cherchais à prendre quelques cours de self-défense et j’ai un amie qui m’a conseillé de contacter Nicolas, qui a une expérience longue de plusieurs années ds les arts martiaux.
J’ai pris du coup quelques cours de self-défense avec lui.
On sent tout de suite son expérience mais ce qui est le plus agréable c’est qu’il est pédagogue et rassurant dans sa façon d’enseigner. On apprend avec bienveillance pr un apprentissage efficace.
Je recommande vivement !!!Professeur pédagogue et patient!! De la théorie et de la pratique comme on aime, juste et efficace ! J ai pris des cours individuels à la base pour voir si la pratique du self-defense pouvait me plaire, aujourd hui j ai déménagé, je me suis inscrit au club, et je regrette quelques peu mes cours individuels....
Nicolas est un super prof, très pédagogue
Il aime faire partager son expérience et son savoir faire
