In an effort to continually add value to the training at Shoken Self-Defense Academy, Instructor Mark Roscoe recently received the C.O.B.R.A. Self-Defense Certification. This program adds value to the ongoing training of our students and ensures we are staying current with applicable self-defense applications.

Taught by professional martial artist and retired police officer, Chris Sutton, the C.O.B.R.A. Self Defense system is designed to be as authentic and real as possible. Many of the techniques taught during this course are the same ones used by safety professionals across the globe. We’ve included many of the techniques, skills and information in our different self-defense courses where appropriate so that our students are always staying up to date with current self-defense best practices.
