About Us

 COBRA FORCE  was founded by Jim Kowalski (Master, Cobra tactics - Street Self-Defense).

     Jim believes in enabling his clients to have a fighting chance on the streets in today's society. To do this, he has developed programs which incorporate both street self-defense (cobra tactics) as well as Dimmak pressure point defense techniques.

   COBRA FORCE specializes in Women's Street Self Defense Training and offers 7 affordable programs:  

• Four Basic Street Self -Defense programs (2-12 hours each)    
• One Street Smart Rape Scenario Defense Training (3 Hours)    
• One Women's Black Belt Training Program (60 hours)  
• One Child Abduction Prevention Program (children 6-13 years old) 

We strive to provide a comfortable, friendly environment for female students, so our women's self-defense classes are taught by female instructors.
