>The school is purpose built to teach people how to defend themselves when in emergency situations and don’t have and weapons to protect themself with. Most hostile situations occur when you will not be armed, so learning how to defend. without weapons is a very useful skill to have. Since it is uncommon to carry around a weapon with you, and often illegal depending on the weapon, it is better that we know how to fight, and use our own hands to combat any assailants.

5 years agoThis is a great school to study at. The friendly trainers and administrative staff also ender a top ED visa service - including ongoing (90 day report) support with the pesky Thai paperwork at the immigration office of Chiang Mai. Not a Muthai studio, but great place to meet new friends and learn self defence. Great flexibility with classes and training schedules with training open during the week and also on weekends. Excellent online service when dealing with them from outside Thailand. Thanks a lot guys!

a year agoI attended Hand to Hand school & visa/service and I must say that my experience was exceptional. Not only does the school offer a wide range of hand-to-hand combat services at a reasonable price, but their Visa services are also exceptionally fast to receive.The staff is highly professional and skilled in their field, and their kindness is remarkable. They went out of their way to make sure that I was comfortable and well-informed throughout my time at the school. I could see a significant improvement in my hand-to-hand combat skills after just a few classes.Moreover, the Visa services offered by the school are incredibly fast. I was amazed by how quickly I received my Visa, which enabled me to travel with ease and without any delays.Overall, I highly recommend Hand to Hand Combat Visa/service to anyone looking to improve their hand-to-hand combat skills or in need of fast Visa services. The staff is exceptional, and their commitment to providing quality service is truly remarkable."

a year agoThe visa staff are so friendly and helpful, truly above and beyond! We were anxious and trying to extend visas, and the staff here was very understanding, professional, and kind. If you are looking for an education visa in self-defense or Thai language, this is an excellent option that makes the process simple and easy.

a year agoI took one year Hand-to-hand combat and self defense classes here. I really enjoyed the classes, the trainers are very helpful and patient during the classes, in spite of me being an old and clumsy Dutch man. The instructors also have a lot of experience and they enjoy sharing the lessons in class.The team of Hand-to-hand are very helpful in helping me to sort out Visa issues, they provided excellent support at the Immigration office and were always making sure my papers were in order.So I highly recommend the Hand-to-hand ED visa, i might take another year of classes in the future, if that is possible, there are many things to learn when it comes to self defense and hand-to-hand combat.
