Modern martial art training in Wellington that will get you in awesome shape,
teach you to defend yourself and challenge your mind, body & spirit!
In Crazy Monkey Defense we prepare you for FULL CONTACT living that prepares you for the mat, street and life! While the rest of the modern martial art world is 'high' on hyper-competitiveness, and reality based self defense paranoia — Crazy Monkey Defense offers a FRESH, and INSPIRING approach to modern Martial Arts training — built on a "Zero Meathead" and "No Ego" ethos.
We are not saying learning how to defend oneself or being challenged is not important — it is — and is an integral part of our training, but what makes us unique, what makes us stand out, is that we go beyond this, to coach you how to take the lessons from the mat so you can perform at your BEST in life!
We coach a modern martial arts experience where we believe that training should be about more than just learning to fight. Crazy Monkey Defense delivers martial art skills that work delivered from an athletic base. So you'll get in shape, be able to protect yourself and learn how to handle pressure in any situation, not just while training but in any area of life. Martial Arts, but not as you know it. Imagine if you could train a modern martial art and make progress from day one. Now imagine that you trained in a challenge-based, rather than hyper-competitive environment, so training was productive and fun. Crazy Monkey Defense is built off a striking-, kicking-, clinch- and grappling game and philosophy, but with cutting-edge coaching and mental game added in.
In summary - we coach you to use your 'embodied intelligence' so that you can survive hostile mind-sets, and lead you to be physically and mentally resilient to fight against all of life’s challenges.

Children Group Sessions
At Crazy Monkey Defense we don't believe that your child have to be the 'alpha' type to be good in martial art performance. In fact we hate the tough-guise so prevalent today in modern martial art circles, and have a ZERO meat-head and ZERO hyper-competitive policy. We will challenge your child to dig down deep in training. But being challenged, performing at their best and reaching their full potential in martial arts doesn't require them to compete or beat the opponent opposite them. Our Children Group classes are called Litte Monkeys and is the "child-friendly" version the Crazy Monkey Defense program, but more focused on the 'play-element'. Your little one will master tools and tactics through the use of games to learn the stand-up, clinch and ground game, based on our famous 'activity based system' aimed at building your child's character - on Saturday afternoons.
