Question hey i know you probably get questions like this all the time but do you know of anyone who, whether as a group or individual classes by request or anything, can teach savate in the Seattle area? thanks so much
Answer Connor,
Best thing to do is contact the California Savate Federation and find out if they have anyone in your area.
I doubt it though because they haven't been doing a big push for certification in a long time.
Failing that try to get your hands on Salem Assli's video series. These were filmed in the 80s but remain the best resource for Savate ever available in the United States.
Good luck to you.
Regards,
Dwight Woods
