Personal Safety & Self Defense

Fighting Spirit Safety is a company also owned by Tanya Panizzo, one of the owners of Midwest Tae Kwon Do.  The company runs its programs inside the Midwest TKD building but also travels to bring safety education around the state and country. Fighting Spirit is a self defense company that works with the community at large, not just martial arts students, to help develop strong and effective self defense skills.

The programs offered are the most progressive safety and consulting services available today. Children as young as 3 years old to women in their senior years are offered self defense programs to help increase their options and improve their safety skill sets. The programs offered at Fighting Spirit are not martial arts programs. They are hands-on activity-based programs that incorporate verbalization and realistic self defense skills that are taught in the state of heightened adrenaline. The ongoing objective of Fighting Spirit is to remain a leader in the education and prevention of violence and abuse among women and children, and to empower students and communities with knowledge and practical skill sets.  Click below to see all the program offerings.
