Information About Will:

Personal Description:

Hello my name is will and I am a music artist, songwriter, producer as well as a self protection and Combatives instructor.

Teaching Experience:

I have been making music my whole life and was self taught until I trained under a sound engineer and producer who is based in Canada who I now work for as his second on all of his projects, I handle all of his editing and a lot of his pre production as well as pre mixing and occasionally sing and record backing vocals for his artists.

In terms of Self Protection and Combatives I have been teaching for a year after earning the honour of being an instructor of Urban Combatives under the legend Lee Morrison who is one of the worlds leading street self protection and Combatives instructors.
Earning my certification with UC was a gruelling and incredibly difficult journey where I had to prove my self under extreme duress to make it through the final stress test.

Tutoring Approach:

Every student is different and so one size doesn't fit all! We all learn in different ways which is why it's best to cater to the individuals needs.

With music the best approach for me personally was apprenticeship type learning on the job, this is dependent on the subject matter and skill set that is being taught.

I am not a fan of endless presentations of a theoretical nature and find that creative projects often built around the students own music is the best way to learn the technical skills involved in sound engineering and music production, this keeps things creative and exciting.

In terms of Self Protection and Combatives the key is the students willingness to learn, we all have different reasons for wanting to train the physical as well as the non physical elements of self protection. What I teach is principle based not technique based as fine motor skills do not hold up under the effects of adrenaline or fight stress which is why it must be simple and gross motor, Combatives is easy to learn, easy to install and dependable under stress. Unlike many self defence methods what I teach is designed so that you can walk out of your first lesson with skills which will serve you that day if you run into trouble, further development of the basic skill sets is Neccesary to develop combative efficiency but the foundations are laid very quickly.

Qualifications:

• I am self taught in music without qualifications
• Urban Combatives level 1 instructor
