Panjo
is a Persian based self defense system which
is designed with the understanding that in a
self defense situation, the most important
thing is to SURVIVE!
Panjo is self defense in its most raw form.
It deals with attackers quickly and
effectively. In Panjo the only techniques
practiced are techniques which work 100% of
the
time regardless of the practitioners
size or
strength. Panjo does not require much muscle
or power since the power in the techniques
is sufficient enough to take out any
attacker. Any
person of any age can benefit from Panjo,
however at IMC, the minimum age required to
start training in Panjo is 13. Any person of
any shape or size is encouraged to train
since everyone can benefit from the
knowledge of true self defense.
Panjo also encourages the practitioner to
explore their personal strengths keeping in
mind that each individual is unique and
possesses different strengths and
weaknesses.
We recommend that for your sake and the
sake of the people you love that you study
and explore Panjo and may you never fear
anyone again.
Testimonials

I came to IMC looking for a
new way to exercise, but I discovered
something more. I tried the kickboxing class
first. The workout was much more intense and
strenuous than at the local gym. This class
was about half the time in length and more
at the pace of athletes training sessions
than anything I had ever taken before.
Having regularly been doing weight training
and playing basketball for cardio I was
surprised by my exhaustion after the first
class. I loved it. I am not a small person
and didn’t feel the need for self defense
classes, but the kickboxing intrigued me
enough to try the Panjo class. This class
was more than a work out. You actually learn
a new skill. Panjo is challenging and fun.
In my first session I was easily defeated by
a much smaller person in boxing and in
grappling. I was shocked, and instantly new
that this was for me. Thanks to IMC I have
overcome a major fitness hurdle for me;
boredom. Every class I learn something new
and I cannot wait to come back. I have lost
30 pounds and my cardio is in better shape
than it has been for years.
Thank you IMC.

"Ever since the beginning of my training
here at IMC Academy I have witnessed vast
improvements in the way I work and train. My
self-confidence, abilities and outlook on
life have risen above and beyond what I
previously thought possible. My family,
friends and coworkers have constantly
expressed the security and feeling of good
when they are in my presence. I only
hope to continue training here if only so
that I can break beyond all barriers whether
physical, mental or spiritual."

spiritually. I am now commanding more
respect at work and in my day to day
activities. I now know I can make it in life
