December 18, 2023 Should everyone learn self defence Guests. Jamie Houston and Sakan Lam
Send us Fan Mail
Sarah welcomes Jamie Houston and Sakan Lam to The Beyond Condition Podcast for an eye opening episode to talk about how self defense can help everyone in life.

Jamie and Sakan are both tutors at The Combat School I joined when moving to Chiang Mai, Thailand. This started off as a new venture of learning the tools of self defence and a different style of fitness.

Did I ever think that I would use this training? I'm happy to admit I didn't truly credit what self defence training can offer.

When out getting steps, something we all do as bodybuilders I was attacked by a stranger, so in answer to the title of the podcast, I do believe everyone can benefit from self defence training.

Discussions include:
*Awareness and adversity
*Identifying danger and Cooper’s code
*Self defence and dealing with conflict
*Understanding trauma
*Body language and perceived weakness
*Assumption and fear
*Support and therapy
*PTSD
*Athlete mindset
