Self Defence

Since getting my black belt in Okinawan Goju Ryu karate in 1980 I have regularly taught self defense to both able and disabled persons.

Please check out my YouTube channel for a series of short self defence videos that I am working on.

John Marrable Wheelchair Karate and Self Defence

In 2011 I had the honor to be asked my Geoff (Tank) Todd to be part of a project he was working on, a ‘Wheelchair Self Defense Manual’ which is over 100 pages.

Check out this link which gives Geoff’s history.

Since the publication of the book I have been approached to do courses specifically for wheelchair users.

I have recently returned from Perth in Western Australia where I took two courses.

Below are some pictures from day 2.

If you would you like further information or interested in booking a course please do not hesitate to contact me:
