EDGEWISE Level 1
Online Edged Weapon Defense Course
Knife Defense Essentials: Survive & Escape Dangerous Encounters
Are You Prepared for a Knife Attack?
Learn how to recognize danger, defend against knives, and survive real-world edged weapon encounters.
A real knife attack is violent, chaotic, and unpredictable.
Traditional martial arts often rely on static techniques that fall apart under pressure.
This course takes a different approach — focusing on principles, situational awareness, and scenario-based training to help you build real, functional skill.
The Harsh Reality of Knife Attacks
Knife threats and attacks are unpredictable. Unlike in movies, there’s no flashy disarm—just brutal, chaotic encounters. Criminals use knives for intimidation and violence, targeting people who seem unprepared. You can’t afford to guess your way through it.
What You’ll Learn in This Course
✅ How to read pre-attack indicators and warning signs before violence begins
✅ Why goal-oriented training outperforms traditional technique collection
✅ How to use your environment to your advantage during a weapon encounter
✅ Drills to help you defend against edged weapons at both long and close range
✅ Realistic, scenario-based training that builds confidence under pressure
✅ What to do after an attack to stay safe and manage the aftermath
This isn’t about complex martial arts moves—it’s about simple, effective strategies that work in the real world.

Pro MMA fighter and Security Officer
I started training with Joey De Los Reyes at the age of 15 with the goal of competing in MMA. Under his instruction I was able to compete Internationally, capture provincial and national titles and rise the ranks to become one the the top amateur MMA athletes in Ontario. I have since made my professional debut and gone undefeated thus far. Joey has a wealth of knowledge on many different martial Arts that he's shared with me and is constantly keeping himself up to date with the latest evolutions and training methodologies in the sport. He's instilled lessons in me that have gone beyond marital arts and helped me find confidence and success in my personal and work life. I would recommend his services to anybody who's looking to get in shape, learn a martial art, gain confidence or learn self defense as he's successfully taught me all of the above.
