 Welcome
to Smith School of Self Defense/Unlimited of
Salem, Oregon. The
Smith School of Self Defense WAS a private
school only teaching a selective few students in
the Salem area. The reason for opening classes
to the public is simple.......these martial arts
school are teaching "art". Self defense and
martial arts are not the same. You do NOT need a
Black Belt to be able to defend yourself.....
About
Smith School of Self Defense Unlimited
The Smith School of Self Defense Unlimited has
been offering instruction and training in CSD
(Combative Self Defense) since 1978 with a
Chicago origin and teaching in Salem, OR. since
2004. Headed by Lord'Steven M. Smith (Head
Instructor/Owner) and C. A. Smith Assistant
Instructor. Smith School of Self Defense
Unlimited offers a number of programs for REAL
STREET EFFECTIVE SELF DEFENSE . These courses
are in seminar format. All techniques at SSSD/U
can be learned by all and retained with little
practice.
What is
Combative Self Defense?
 A Martial Art can be defined as a system of
techniques - physical and mental exercises
developed as a successful means for
self-defense, both armed and unarmed.
Techniques, skills and abilities that are
martial in nature but do not benefit the
practitioner and their community are generally
not considered martial arts. Martial arts
utilize a variety of combat methods. Some styles
focus on grappling while others put their
emphasis on striking. Weaponless systems use
hand, arm, foot, shin, and knee striking and
blocking techniques.
Not all forms of self-defense are actually
considered to be martial arts. Some argue that
unless warriors were using a fighting system in
actual combat, it was not truly a martial art.
Additionally, there is a difference between
martial art and martial sport; the sport
applicationed for health and fitness, sport, law
enforcement, spiritual benefits as well as for
self-defense.
Combative means "to Combat/to fight/to fight in
a vicious manner." There are no fancy spinning,
jumping, high kicking moves.

"I teach a NO NONSENSE form of
self defense Simple Easy Effective Techniques.
These are the skills that will pull you out of
the fire of combat if need be. Personal Safety
should go beyond just locking your doors and
windows. With just one of these courses (and
practice) you will have the needed skill to
survive MOST attacks."
