I found Leo from his website and met with him to discuss my goals of learning self-defense.  I thought learning self-defense would help me because I am often in potentially dangerous situations working with the mentally ill.   Leo really listened to my goals and structured the lessons accordingly.    He pulled techniques from various martail arts and taught me useful escapes/holds that are most likely to happen in  my work situation. Leo is an awesome teacher and he broke down the lessons so I (someone with no martial art/self-defense experience) could understand and repeat the techniques.  Leo is a very laid-back, cool guy who's really intense about teaching and helping his students reach their goals.  After about 12 private lessons with Leo, my self-confidence has improved significantly and I know that if something happens at work I can use the tools I've learned to get out of the situation in one piece.  I highly recommend learning self-defense from Leo--you won't be disappointed.
