About

Poe’s Self-Defense was organized in the year 2000.

Its founder, Phillip Poe, is committed to teaching, training, and educating the public about how to avoid and survive acts of violence.

Saving lives and strengthening communities are our main objectives.

Environmental awareness is one of the tools that is taught with great intensity.

De-escalating is another major skill that is used to educate the public.

Although we are not advocates of confrontations, we are proponents of training the common citizen how to defend themselves in a violent situation.

These teachings, with the help of our DVD series–Vol. I “Punching and Kicking Your Way to Freedom” and Vol. II “Common Street Attacks”–are the tools that every household should own to enhance one’s knowledge of how to have a safer life and a stronger community.
