Kinko Hamilton has a mission to heal the world. While she was taking a break from her holistic healing practice due to pregnancy or the delivery of her second son, she started learning martial arts thinking that she’s learning self-defense. After several serious injuries, she started redefining what self-defense is and now she teaches Tony Blauer’s SPEAR System as an official affiliate trainer. Kinko has also studied DTS which is Dacascos Tactical System, kyusho jitsu which is pressure-point self defense, and trauma-informed self-defense. She created and hosted the Women’s Self-Defense Summit in 2020 and will continue to host it every year, gathering the world’s top self-defense experts to educate women to live inspired and empowered. She’s fluent in Japanese and plans to bring her work to her home country, Japan, in the near future. She’s also the host of a great podcast called, “Rise Up Against Violence”
In this episode, Kinko and I discuss:
Key Takeaways:
