About

I have studied tai-chi, karate, aikido, and military combatives. I have taught self-defense for over 4 years. Training people in the warrior arts and helping them learn how to stay safe against violent crime is my greatest passion in life.

I offer private lessons (one student only) as well as small group lessons (up to five students). I focus on helping each student develop to their full potential. Although self-defense training does carry some risk of injury, I always endeavor to train students safely.

Henry was very friendly and informative. Self-defence class was very fun and useful. We learned a lot of techniques and tips for life and for protecting ourselves in a dangerous situation.

I have been training in self defense with Henry Nguyen for over 2 months now racking up over 15 one hour sessions and I have learned a lot from our time. My schedule is a little crazy (working 15hours/day) so for me finding someone to work with my schedule was a little challenging but when I first talked to Henry he was very understanding to my schedule and was willing on seeing me 2 times a week from 8:30pm to 9:30pm at my house. Henry is extremely passionate about teaching self defense and if you ever ask him a question he does not know how to answer, you can expect a text the next morning answering your question in detail. I enjoy the session with him and will be continuing to have more

Frequently asked questions

I have dabbled in karate, aikido, and tai-chi, but for the past several years I have been focused on practicing commando style fighting - methods taught to Allied commandos during World War Two plus some techniques taught to CIA officers, US Army Special Forces, Navy SEALs, and US Marines.

For private lessons, I charge $80 per hour.  For group lessons (two to five students), I charge a combined total of $150 per hour (so for example, if teaching a group of five students, each student would only have to chip in $30 per hour).  I also offer a military and law enforcement discount of 20% off.  For new students, I offer one half-hour FREE lesson so that you can try before you buy. 

I have taught people aspiring to join the military as well as regular citizens.

What do you really hope to get out of self-defense lessons?  Are you looking for a martial ART, or are you looking for a MARTIAL art?  Do you plan to fight in a ring with a ref and rules, or do you want to prepare for life-threatening violent encounters on the mean streets?  Training for competition is diffferent than training for real-life violence, and you must be cognizatn of this and know what you REALLY want out of self-defense lessons before committing to it.
