FlowGuard™
Women’s Self-Defense in Singapore
A Creation of Jeet Kune Do Singapore
Empowerment Through Flow.
Welcome to FlowGuard™ – a unique approach to women’s self-defense that empowers you with practical skills, mental resilience, and a sense of confidence that extends beyond physical techniques. Designed by Sean Lim, a dedicated Jeet Kune Do Instructor, former National Fencer, and martial artist with 15+ years of experience, FlowGuard™ blends the core principles of martial arts into an adaptable, highly practical form of self-defense.
The FlowGuard™ Philosophy:
Moving with Purpose,
Living with Confidence
FlowGuard™ is rooted in a simple philosophy: self-defense is more than just physical protection—it’s about finding freedom and security through self-awareness, adaptability, and movement. In today’s world, being prepared for unexpected situations isn’t just a practical skill; it’s a form of personal empowerment, especially for women who travel, commute alone, or navigate unfamiliar spaces.
Inspired by the adaptable, “be like water” principles of Jeet Kune Do, FlowGuard™ emphasizes fluid, natural movements tailored to each individual’s strengths and abilities. Rather than rigid techniques or aggressive posturing, FlowGuard™ teaches you to use awareness, presence, and instinctive responses to protect yourself effectively. This approach builds both mental and physical resilience, creating a foundation for a more confident, balanced life.
With FlowGuard™, self-defense becomes part of who you are. It’s about moving confidently, reacting instinctively, and feeling secure in your ability to adapt to any situation.
FlowGuard™ Offerings
We offer several FlowGuard™ programs tailored to meet different needs and skill levels. Each can be customized for individuals, groups, and corporate settings, making FlowGuard™ accessible to everyone.

These structured courses run over several weeks and build essential FlowGuard™ self-defense skills. You’ll learn how to adapt simple, practical techniques to real-life situations, with a focus on awareness, movement, and mental clarity.

Core Areas of Focus
In all FlowGuard™ programs, we emphasize:
Situational Awareness
The first step to self-defense is recognizing and assessing your surroundings. FlowGuard™ teaches you how to identify potential risks before they escalate, keeping you proactive and prepared.
Instinctive Physical Defense
FlowGuard™ emphasizes simple, instinctual movements that leverage your body’s natural strengths. You’ll learn techniques for breaking holds, defending against strikes, and responding effectively without relying on brute force.
Using Everyday Objects for Protection
Discover how to use common items—like a bag, keys, or water bottle—as defensive tools. FlowGuard™ helps you see the potential in the ordinary, turning daily objects into barriers for protection.
Building Fitness and Mobility
FlowGuard™ isn’t just about defense—it’s about enhancing your overall movement, fitness, and flexibility. These elements not only improve your physical safety but also support a healthy, balanced lifestyle.

I have always wanted to acquire a self-defense skill for safety purposes as well as to break a sweat. This was the perfect martial art after researching for quite awhile. It seems to be rare to find full-time Jeet Kune Do classes and I’m glad to have found one. Sean was very clear in his instructions during classes. He is also patient as he ensured I had the basics in place before progressing further. I have a long way to go but I am excited to embark on this fun and purposeful journey.

I’ve practiced Muay Thai and BJJ since 2013, but Jeet Kune Do opened up a whole new perspective. Sean’s approach honors Bruce Lee’s spirit of adaptability and self-discovery, allowing me to move in ways that align with my natural abilities. JKD has been a truly transformative journey, and I’m excited to keep learning.

Sean is one of the most dedicated and focused individuals I know. Even in his early fencing days, he had a remarkable ability to shut out distractions and pursue his goals with clarity. He handles setbacks with a positive, determined mindset, which helped him quickly become one of the best fencers around. Sean’s talent spans multiple martial arts, but what truly sets him apart is his grounded perspective and mentorship in every area of life.
