At Genesis we offer training in weapons that others generally do not. We recognize our clients are individuals simply seeking a way or ways to protect themselves, their families and their property, within the bounds of the law and not run afoul of it. This virtually eliminates most if not all, non-firearm type Law Enforcement, Martial Arts and street weapons such as the standard Police Baton, PR 24 Baton, Collapsible Batons, Mace, and Tasers, nuchakus, sap, brass knuckles, switchblades and gravity knives. Mindful of this fact, we have built our weapons training programs by choosing:

1) Items that either ARE NOT weapons per se, or

2) Items that ARE weapons first and foremost, BUT are NOT prohibited by law.

The sjambok is one of the most versatile weapons we have ever seen. It can be used effectively by the young and the elderly alike. It is lightning fast and inflicts searing pain, yet it is virtually impossible to fatally injure an adversary with one. This South African cattle whip was originally made out of hippo or rhino hide and the cattlemen were quick to appreciate it’s power and versatility. It soon became known as an efficient snake killer, as well as an incredibly effective self defense tool. It’s easy to use and probably the best non-lethal Self defense tool you could own as it is not prohibited by law as many other weapons are. The sjambok is so versatile in fact, that our Self Defense Program for the Visually Impaired is built around it. Contact us for more information about this program.

A walking stick can be a formidable Self Defense Tool and like the sjambok is not a prohibited item. The Irish Blackthorn is just one splendid example. The British so feared the Irish Shillelagh (a short, thick club made from the Blackthorn) that they outlawed it during the occupation. To get around this ban, the Irish began cutting the Blackthorn longer effectively turning it into a walking stick that the British would be hard pressed to outlaw. In the right hands it can make short work of an unarmed or even a knife wielding assailant. Along with the sjambok, it should be a part of every law abiding individual’s self defense inventory.

Almost as hard hitting as a Walking Stick, but more unobtrusive than either the Sjambok or the Walking Stick, The Unbreakable Umbrella is perhaps the ultimate stealth weapon. The carrying of a walking stick by an able bodied person can sometimes attract attention unless carried while walking your dog or in a country setting whereas an umbrella can be carried just about anywhere. It is always at the ready and can be brought into action instantly much to the chagrin and dismay of your adversary.
