GSP is looking forward to another great semester of training!

As we begin this coming week, it is important to note the reality of what we’re preparing for. It seems as though a new violent headline makes itself known in the Columbia and greater community areas every day.

This semester is sure to come with a more concise training methodology as compared to prior semesters. We want to maximize learning output so that the students of the university can further understand the dynamics of violence and how to prevent it.

We’ll also be training weekly, giving the community ample time to improve their mindset and toolbox to keep themselves safe.

So come on out! Take some time for yourself and train with us. #uscgamecocks #selfprotection #martialarts by @gc_selfprotection

Gamecock Self Protection is still emerging, but we’re looking to make an impact. An impact leaving our campus community safer. Recent incidents within and outside campus in the greater Columbia area should put all of us on notice. That’s why we put in the work to prepare for the worst. To avoid the consequences of complacency.

Whether it may or may not happen to you, it certainly does to your neighbors. The best time is NOW.

Train with us. Build your toolbox. Prevail a victor. by @gc_selfprotection

Thursday session recap: We expanded on Cooper’s Color Code, sharpened our default re-active responses, and worked direct counters to straight attacks. Awareness, decision-making, and execution under pressure — great work all around. Can’t wait to see you next week! by @gc_selfprotection
