What is Vigilance? It is the state of constantly being watchful of potential dangers or threats. Vigilance is the first and a very important ingredient in personal protection and self defense. Being vigilant allows you to observe, recognize and take action against conflict and violence, potentially before they occur.
This is what people are saying about us. It starts with an introduction. Then it turns into a fascination, which turns into a want and then a goal and then something you get in 20 years when you realize what you want isn't offered genuinely. I've been infatuated with heroes and protecting and fighting.

This is such a wonderful place to learn. Doug Hicks is an excellent instructor with tons of knowledge about different forms of martial arts. He has a way of explaining concepts that makes sense to me but can also explain things in different ways if it doesn’t make sense.
I really enjoy the classes here because the techniques are different than the ones I learned at my Krav Maga school. Lots of the things I’ve learned in this school are very realistic scenarios that might happen and how to deal with that situation. We’ve trained lots with guns and knives (training ones of course) and different

As a traditional martial artist with decades of training, working with Doug brought a much-needed a fresh breeze to my practice. He has enabled me to look at many of my techniques and approaches from a variety of new angles. I don't know another martial artist who has a better grasp of what he is teaching and why, and who is able to apply his approach with such skill. Never stuck in his ways, he is constantly looking to improve, even after having been practicing for such a long time.

Eastside Combatives Progressive Martial Arts in Kirkland really deserves attention for those interested in self-defense and/or martial arts. I don’t normally write reviews, just ask many of the Amazon sellers I purchased from, but this martial arts school deserves being mentioned. I feel very lucky to have found Eastside Combatives Progressive Martial Arts two months ago as each class presents immense practical self-defense techniques and martial arts. The instructor has life long martial arts experience and a long career of real- world application. See the website for detailed information. I
