Strongline Academy - Online Selbstverteidigung lernen

Great book. For anyone who wants to learn self-defense absolutely recommended.

I have been trained and coached online by Marcel for a long time. The training with him is absolutely goal-oriented and easy to understand. Not only is his training motivating, but he also always makes sure that I stay motivated myself. I can continuously ask questions, and also have my workout videos analyzed from my home workouts. I am very glad that I chose his online training and complete support.

The book is very well structured, clearly and understandably written and reduced to the absolutely necessary. Even for beginners, the basics of SV are conveyed in an understandable way. I can recommend the book without reservation.
Really great how competent Marcel clarifies the myths in street fighting / self-defense.

I had the pleasure of training Combatives for a few months and have found a lot in this book again.

Basically, I have been doing martial arts and SV in the form of Krav Maga for many years.
As an Assist Instructor KM I have been able to take a lot from this book into the trainings.

Great praise and thanks to you Marcel, I hope you help many people to learn to assess dangerous situations and to get out of them healthy.

Very informative, as a Thai boxer the book convinced me to get into other martial arts as well. Thanks a lot

This book is different. Different from the usual publications on the subject of self-defense, which come up with as many pictures and lists of techniques. Marcel clears up with the nonsense, which is often given away there.
A must for anyone who wants to understand what SV means at all and how to defend yourself effectively. He decisively explains what really matters in realistic self-defense.

In addition to this detailed part, the technical part is not neglected, because in all chapters QR codes are included.
QR codes are incorporated in all chapters, by means of which one can access the corresponding videos of his channel.
can be accessed.

For me, this is one of the best books on SV.

I recently read the book "Effective and Quickly Learned Self Defense" and highly recommend it. Marcel has done an excellent job of presenting both the theory and practice of self-defense in an accessible and understandable way. The instructions are clear and well structured, making it easy to try the techniques yourself.

What I particularly liked is the realistic approach of the book. The methods presented are not only effective, but also easy to apply in everyday situations. This is especially valuable for people who don't have time to learn complex martial arts, but still want to learn how to protect themselves.

In addition to the techniques, the book also offers useful tips on situational awareness and avoiding dangerous situations, which I found particularly insightful.

Marcel, thank you for your effort and contribution to this important topic. You have created a comprehensive, practical work that will help many people to go through life more safely and confidently.

My husband and I have been interested in self-defense for 7 years and have been following Marcel's online videos regularly for about 5 years. They immediately captivated us, because the exercises can be practiced very clearly and comprehensibly. You can tell that a lot of street experience has been gained here.
The newly published, very detailed book provides additional support for all questions of SV. Among other things it contains to the important practices also essential answers to the topics: Origin of violence, self-defense law, using everyday objects for defense, etc.
Everything is brought directly to the point and is therefore suitable for beginners as well as for advanced students.
The book is the optimal complement to the online course. Anyone who is interested in defense on the street can not avoid this book!

Marcy Descy knows what he is talking about and what he teaches is absolutely reality-based and effective. He is an expert who has decades of background in many martial arts and combat sports systems, some of which have high teaching degrees. He has also dealt extensively with real violence on the streets and therefore knows what works and what doesn't. From this he has founded his Strongline Academy where he teaches realistic self-defense. For anyone whose life depends on their ability to protect themselves, this is highly recommended.
Not only is Descy extremely competent and capable of teaching SV - he is also very pleasant as a person. A nice, friendly and sympathetic person who is genuinely interested in his students learning and being able to do what will really help them in a real emergency.
I myself have practiced many martial arts systems over many years and know the difference between them and real violence on the street. I also know how many people do not know this difference and with life-threatening illusions assume to be able to protect themselves and others because they practice martial arts or combat sports. Marcel Descy's point of view is absolutely reality-based and therefore a real recommendation for every martial artist, martial artist and non-martial artist/sportsman when it comes to real self-defense that works. Since this is no longer a matter of course nowadays and you will find more people who have little or no idea about violence on the street but all the more to say or write about it, Descy is all the more recommendable if you are looking for realistic, effective self-defense. There are few people who are as highly educated and experienced in so many different fighting systems as Descy and who have had so much real-life experience of violence that they know what works and what doesn't - and who pass on this hard-earned knowledge and skill.
And who thus fight against the commercial mainstream and its numerous myths that want to sell people things for expensive money as self-defense that are not self-defense. I highly recommend Descy to any person who wants to protect themselves from real violence.

I bought the two video courses Solo Training Pratze and Dummy, and am completely satisfied. I had trained about 5 years ago for 2 years Krav Maga, and am positively surprised how versatile and intense you can train with the claws and the dummy alone. Marcel explains and shows the procedures very well and understandable to copy. Since I have moved and am quite limited in time, the videos are a very good alternative. So if you want or need to train alone, you definitely need to get these video courses. Everything to the point, and only what you really need.

I myself am very busy with the topic of realistic self-defense and the recommended methods in various martial arts, and find that the videos and the book by Marcel Descy are absolutely recommendable. All important topics of SV are taken into account and explained well understandable for laymen and advanced martial artists.

Even with years of martial arts experience, I could still learn a lot. The fighting techniques
shown in the videos work very well in practice. Also the tips on how to defuse a
dangerous situation " can be defused " or how to behave, are very useful.

No frills!
To the point and also implementable!
The punch combination exercises are great!

Prima and logically structured. However, no learning without guidance from an experienced instructor! In SV comes much of the head and must be trained as well as the pure movements. The book does not want to and can not replace a trainer, but help, guide and understand!

Congruent with my ideas of a simple and effective self-defense for everyone!

In my opinion, self-defense must be simple and without "frills". That's how it is shown here. Highly recommended!

The book is very well structured and very well laid out. It is easy to understand and I can highly recommend it. I am looking forward to more books from you. LG Bernd Matthias

Very good book with tips from reality.

Marcel Descy is a very personable person who focuses on simple and effective techniques in his book (and also in the videos). The videos illustrate the techniques and help with understanding. He also clearly shows the limits of self-defense and the risks involved.

The book has been very well written....for anyone concerned with SV it is a good work!

The book is top, corresponds to reality. Buy recommendation.
