Hand 2 Hand self defense classes in Pittsburgh
Okay guys, not quite firearms related but lately I have been thinking of getting some training. We are planning on visiting family in England within a few months and guns are not too welcome there. Knife crime is up and I am WAY unprepared for a SD situation.
I could use a good, realistic class for H2H, knife defense, gun grabs, ext... I would like to avoid years of kung-fu, I want to focus on realistic training.
Any recommendations in the Pittsburgh area?

You have to watch those Brits and their drive by arguments.

We try to schedule these every year but unfortunately nobody seems to be interested. The courses offered are specifically devoid of requiring "years of kung-fu".
Google < Steve Tarani >. He is the guy we use.

I'd be up for it, if a group was gotten together for it.
