Bruce has been teaching self-protection skills to students for more than 30 years.

Bruce Gunderson, women's self-defense instructorHe is the owner of The Winning Edge Group in Park Ridge where he has a stable of dedicated and high-ranking martial artists teaching martial arts and self-defense to adults and kids.  

"Some women are viewed as easy prey and become victimized," he says.  I feel it is our responsibility as not only martial artists, but as responsible, caring people to make our world as safe a place and possible and empower women with the skills and self-confidence to be secure and protected."

A highly knowledgeable and experienced source for self-protection, Bruce has dedicated his life to helping and defending others.

"All people should have the right to feel safe. The psychological aftereffects of being victimized are a terrible thing that no one should have to endure.  If I can prevent someone from having to go through this life-long trauma, I feel it is my responsibility to do so."

What do you mean "Fight like a Girl"?

 

 

 

"In a stranger-rape situation, if he allows you to see his face, you get his name, or you can somehow otherwise identify your attacker, and he knows it, it’s all the more important to get away from him, even if he has a knife and you are risking injury.  Because unless he’s quite inexperienced, he’s likely to kill you to leave no witnesses." 

 John Douglas, legendary FBI profiler

Program a Long Time Coming

"The concept of enlightening women to 'fight like girls' is a long time coming. We should have been doing this years ago.  The female body is built differently and can be used effectively against a male attacker if trained properly.  Defend University and the Rape Escape program have proven again and again that the Fight Like a Girl program is successful, easy to learn and easy to deliver."

Dave Scorza
