| Martial Signing is a unique method of self-defense which integrates the vocabulary of American Sign Language with concepts of Pressure Point Fighting (kyusho-jitsu). The result is a remarkably effective and easy-to learn method of self-protection. Martial Signing was developed by Matt Hayat. Hard of hearing from birth, Matt began studying martial arts in 1990. He currently holds masters rank in Ryukyu Kempo, as well as black belt rank in Tae Kwon Do and Isshin Ryu Karate Do. |
