CLOSE
COMBAT SEMINAR A ROARING SUCCESS!

Students and
instructors from A.I.M.A.A Scotland attended the
official "Close Combat Pressure Point Seminar" under
the direction of our very own Mr James Lawson 5th
Degree, on Thursday the 2nd of September. This
was an absolutely fantastic seminar that had
everyone eager to learn more! Mr Lawson's depth of
knowledge within this type of self defence is second
to none, and the pain inflicted by the simplest of
pressure moves, was phenomenal! Everyone had
a great time, a lot of pain and enjoyed learning the simplest
of holds, to the more advanced moves, that were
lethal to learn. A truly amazing seminar, from
an amazing Instructor within our association. To read more on
