I felt more confident within the first 5 minutes learning from him but then he really goes into each position we might be put into and what our options of defense are to get out and attack our attacker! He even pads up and has us practice on him. I am blown away by how little I knew before this class. I would have been useless and I already feel so much stronger and safer after just one 1.5 hr session! Nelson is fabulous. He is the sweetest, most encouraging but straight forward teacher. I could go on and on about how highly I recommend him. You will NOT regret this class (definitely might feel sore after though!!!) My friend and I have been obsessing over our newfound passion in this training and can't wait to continue with Nelson!!

My family and I have been training at Nations Lab for years and we couldn't be happier! I have…read morethree children who all started training with Coach Carnation at a very young age even before Nations Lab had an address. The training they have received is phenomenal, but what stands out the most is the unique approach to martial arts and self defense. Not only do the kids learn self defense techniques and discipline, they are also getting life lessons that will follow them through their lives. In a world that is constantly changing, many traditional martial arts feel outdated. What makes Nations Lab special is the way Coach has developed a modern art that makes sense for the world we live in today. The. focus on real-world self-defense is essential for children and adults of all ages-it's not just about fitness and discipline, but about skills that can potentially save lives. As a parent and student myself, I also participate in the group workout classes. These classes are amazing. They keep me motivated, energized, and hyped to push myself further every time. What I love most about Nations Lab is the personal attention we all receive -it really feels like a second home. My kids enjoy the group classes and especially love the holiday parties and potlucks, which give them a chance to hang out with their classmates outside of training. The community atmosphere is truly special here. If you are ready or don't know where to start call The Lab. Coach Carnation can guide you.

I took the Women's Basics course after moving to LA and it changed my life! I would sign all of my…read morefriends up for this class if I could. This course teaches essential skills for verbal de-escalation, boundary setting, and physical self-defense, but what really sets it apart is how those skills are ingrained through fully-adrenalized, full-force fight scenarios. That, and the fact that the IMPACT instructors are phenomenal. I'm always impressed by their attentiveness, innovative teaching techniques, and their emphasis on students' safety during physical confrontations. Since taking the Basics course, I've successfully used verbal de-escalation tools twice in real-life situations, including during a frightening incident when a muscular man ran straight at me and blocked my path while I was walking in my neighborhood. I've also applied the skills I've learned in the workplace and most other areas of life. It may sound hyperbolic, but the class really changed how I walk through the world. If you can't commit to the full Basics course, consider taking the Intro Class. It's a great place to start. IMPACT also offers an advanced course and a "Defense Against the Armed Assailant" course for those who have completed the Basics. I took both and highly recommend!

I thought it was a cute idea for a "Ladies Night Out". I contacted one of the owners (Chris) to find out how I could host a self defense class that would best fit my organization. Chris was very helpful and was able to tailor the class to my specific goals. I decided to host a Mother's & Daughter's Kick Butt self defense class for my organization RISE UP Youth Empowerment, as a bonding activity between mothers and daughters. Although I didn't come in with any particular expectations but the class was very informative, and more importantly it was fun fun fun!!!! All the ladies who attended the class expressed that they were able to learn great moves which also focused on toning their bodies. The Self Defense teachers were great!! they kept us interested with the knowledge they gave us.
