| Ashwin Mohan is an executive coach. His job is to coach and motivate a wide variety of people - from the rank and file to CEO's and VP's of India's IT industry. Ashwin, however, is better known today as a martial arts exponent. He began his journey into the martial arts to ward off bullies in school. And once that was achieved, he became fascinated with the concept of smaller people bringing down and dominating tougher and larger opponents. Ashwin began a thorough study of the techniques and philosophy of arts such as Judo, Aikido, Jujutsu and Ninjutsu. The principles of all the different arts were varied but they all agreed that there are several methods to dominate a larger opponent that does not require the use of brute force. GITT is the result of Ashwin's deep research in the world of street violence, mental abuse and finally martial art. It is a sound system of safety and self confidence for today's working woman.
Today Asthtva has trained several thousand women in self defense. It is a growing art and new knowledge is being added constantly. According to Ashwin it is both full and empty, stable and flowing, Yang and Yin. |
