JASON TAKING SELF DEFENCE
TO ANOTHER LEVEL
A group of East London residents meet twice
a week to punch, kick and wrestle as they
learn how to take their power back from criminals.
Self-defence classes – offered by Jason Iveson
using a Hudson Park High School hall –
are teaching everyone from housewives to
trained security guards how to handle a confrontation
with a criminal and walk away from
it with their lives.
Iveson teaches a form of self-defence known
as Krav Maga, a combat style that originated
in Israel.

JASON TAKING SELF DEFENCE TO ANOTHER LEVEL
CONT. FROM FRONT PAGE
This is the training style used by the
Israeli military and special forces,
and covers a broad spectrum of
training from self-defence through
to tactical skills.
According to Iveson, he is affiliated
to the Israeli Contact Combat System
(ICCS) after successfully completing
a competency training
course over 10 years ago. Refresher
courses are available in Israel on
an annual basis.
By using Krav Maga techniques,
Iveson teaches his students how to
throw a proper punch, how to block
a punch, how to safely disarm
someone carrying a weapon, how
to block a rape and how they can
protect themselves from an attacker
using just their hands.
Making use of gym mats to cushion
blows to the body, Iveson creates a
variety of different scenarios for his
students based on possible real-life
danger situations and physically
demonstrates how they can overpower
their assailant, recover possible
weapons and escape.
Plastic knives and guns are used as
props. Iveson said the techniques
are suitable for all age groups.
Although the classes have been
ongoing for years, Iveson said the
demand had increased in the past
few months as crime levels in the
city increase.
“A lot of people don’t know this but
crime evolves all the time as criminals
learn new techniques. Housebreakings
have evolved and
muggings have evolved,” Iveson
said.
“I think it’s because of this that I’ve
had people coming to ask me what
they can do to combat growing
crime levels and learn how to protect
themselves.
“The classes actually began when I
started inviting a few guys around to
my place for sparring matches
about two years ago.
“They told their friends about it, who
also told other friends and before
long I had so many people interested
in learning I just decided to turn
it into a class.
“The moves are designed in such a
way that they teach people how to
defend themselves from everyday
attacks such as a knife attack.
“Through the classes, a student is
equipped on how to prevent themselves
from being stabbed with the
weapon, how to disarm the attacker
and, most importantly, how to get
away to safety.”
Iveson, who used to sell cars for a
living until he became a full-time
instructor two years ago, said his
love of martial arts began at the age
of seven with karate and kick-boxing
lessons.
But it was 17 years later that he was
introduced to Krav Maga, which he
immediately loved.
Itching to teach as many people as
possible, Iveson said he gave up
his full-time employment to offer lessons.
A few women who were interested
in learning, but feared being in a
class full of men, has given rise to
exclusively female classes, which
begin next week.
Iveson said he now also trains security
officers from three different security
companies in the city.
“I’ve had ladies come in and I find
that they’re nervous to come to a
big or a mixed class so I’m starting
ladies’ classes.
“The ladies are usually very reserved
at the start and their main
interest is how they can learn to
defend themselves against a rape
or a mugging.
“I’m also training security personnel
at the moment. These guys are
wearing uniforms worth a few thousands
of rands like the bulletproof
vests and they are carrying firearms,
so the criminal’s intention is to try
and get that away from the guy.
“I’ve gone in and I’ve taught them
how to defend themselves against
that situation and how to disarm the
criminals.
“I’ve also taught them proper arresting
procedures and techniques,” he
said, adding that he had celebrated
a success story recently.
“An armed response officer, who
heard about a robbery in progress
via Crime Spotter, rushed to the
scene. Using what he has learnt
from the training, he managed to
disarm a knifed attacker and wrestle
a gun away from second attacker
and the arrests were made. He
walked away with his life and prevented
his gun from landing up in
the criminal’s hands, so his success
is far-reaching.”
Iveson warned that the self-defence
classes are very physical. “It can
also get very personal because I’m
in your space. When I teach a woman
how to escape a possible rape I
don’t just tell her about it, we get on
the floor and I show her.
“I get punched, scratched and
kicked every single week, especially
by the ladies.
“Once the ladies get a pair of boxing
gloves on and throw that first punch
they realise just how strong they
are and they usually can’t get
enough after that.”
Student Eugine Chipps, a Beacon
Bay visible policing commander,
said such training was an invaluable
skill – useful to everyone from
child to trained police officer.
Chipps, who starting attending
classes two years ago, said he also
found them informative.
He said: “This is very relaxing, especially
after a long day at work.
“The best part is that this is not a
class where you have to cram all of
the moves into your head at once.
Once you’re in a situation then all
that training automatically comes
back to you.
“I know that all police officers go for
training when they join the force but
I think this is something valuable
which they could add to their existing
training.”
Fellow student Delane Heath said
she had recently heard about the
classes and, because she usually
walks to work and the home journey
is in the evening, wanted to know
how to defend herself from a possible
attacker.
“So I decided to come and see what
it’s all about and I must say, so far
so good. I find this fun and informative
at the same time.
“This is not one of those classes
where you are told what to do – you
are actually shown what to do,
which makes it even better,” Heath
said.
Iveson said many people harboured
misconceptions about what self-defence
classes are about.
“The important thing for everyone to
know is that I don’t teach you to be
Rambo, where you can take 20
people out, mop the floor with them
and still manage to run away. No.
“I teach people the reality of what
they can expect in an attack. I teach
people to accept that they can be
punched, they can be stabbed and
that they can be bruised. But I teach
them how they can control that situation
and how to get away from it
with their lives.” —

GONUBIE MARKET FORCED
TO CLOSE
The owners of a Gonubie flea
market and restaurant have
been given only hours to vacate
the premises from which
they are operating.
This Buffalo City Metro told
Debbie and Ronnie Courtney,
who own the Bloo Munch
Box flea market, to shut
down their businesses as the
property they are operating
from is zoned for agricultural
purposes and not commercial.
The Courtneys
said
their landlord
gave them a
letter from
BCM last
week as he
had only received
it
around February
20. In the
letter, dated
February 9,
BCM instructs
them to close
their Gonubie
Main Road
business.
The Courtneys said the land
had been previously unattended,
and had become a
dangerous dump attracting
“unwanted elements”.
“In September 2016 we decided
to clean the place up and
turn it into a space where
families could enjoy a meal
and kids could go for pony
rides … as well as creating
jobs,” said Debbie
Ronnie said after putting up
the restaurant structure
made from wood and prefabricated
material, building inspectors
who had approved
the initial plans informed
them they had to move the
structure because it was built
over a BCM water line.
In November 2016, the Courtneys
put up a fence to secure
the property, and again received
permission from building
inspectors.
They claim
they were later
informed
by BCM that
the fence had
been erected
over water
mains which
the municipality
needed access
to at any
time.
In January
2017 they received
an instruction
to
take down the fencing, as
BCM wanted to erect road
reserve fencing along Gonubie
Main Road.
The latest instruction received
by the Courtneys orders
them to cease business
activities by March 9.
The letter states that business
activities on the site do
not adhere to provisions for
such use.
Debbie said they felt let down
by the municipality. “BCM
knows that we’ve been building
this place. We showed
their site inspectors all our
plans even before we began,
and they gave us the goahead.
If our place is not
suitable for business, why
did they not tell us in the beginning?
“There are presently nine families
who benefit from this
place. “These are people
who did not have jobs or any
means of income, but can
now feed their families.
“Where are they going to go
now? What about all the money
we’ve spent over the past
few months fixing this place?”
A portion of the land belongs
to Rencon owner Renny
Schwedhelm, who has also
served the couple with letters

asking them to shut down, as
they “are unsightly and diminishing
the value of the property”.
“What they are doing is outside
municipal by-laws. They
are squatting and operating
on property that’s not zoned
for what they are doing.
“I’m not here to shut any businesses
down, but they must
follow the correct laws, or
else East London will turn
into an even bigger circus,
with anyone opening a business,”
said Schwedhelm.
BCM spokesman Sibusiso
Cindi said BCM would look
further into the matter.
“However, it is important to
highlight that BCM is against
businesses running illegally
or engaging in illegal business
deals.”

The competition included 6 teams, each playing 3 games .
The format that was followed is the same as T20 cricket,
except with the games being much shorter.
Opportunity was given to all the participants to play, irrespective
of how badly their teams performed. The tournament was
well run and the fun factor was evident from the enthusiasm
showed by the boys.
Well done to Crewe for a wonderful spectacle of young cricket
and we look forward to seeing this young talent playing for

W4C ‘SURF THERAPY
Award Winning organisation
Waves for Change (W4C) proves
that the ocean has magical healing
powers
The organisation uses surfing as
therapy to change and heal lives.
Operating in Cape Town and East
London alongside beaches, W4C
works with local communities, offering
support to vulnerable children
from impoverished
communities.
Parkside is a low-income community
that has little engagement
with the ocean. Mercedes Benz
identified the potential of setting
up a W4C site in the area. The
goal is to provide child-friendly
mental health service in communities
across the globe where mental
health services are
under-resourced and stigmatised,”
W4C communications director
Hannah Fowles said.
“At the moment, we run seven sessions
per week with children from
AW Barnes Primary, Parkside Primary,
Khayalethu Special School
and a group we call the C for
Change from the East London
Child Welfare.
“We also have a group from the
Sunshine Child and Youth Centre,”
Fowles explained.
W4C East London programme
manager JD van der Walt, said:
“Our programmes are interactive
activities focused around key
teachable moments and participants
connect with caring mentors
[W4C coaches] who introduce
positive coping skills.
“We have secured the services of
a trained psychologist to improve
the counselling and personal
growth of the coaches individually
and the group as a whole.”
The coaches of W4C interact with
the children on a personal level,
understanding that they were just
like them not so long ago. Listening
to the stories has led them to
state that there is definite improvement
in terms of behaviour, interpersonal
interaction, respect and
having a sense of pride and belonging.
“We have 125 participants in the
programme. The positive response
from the participants, parents
and teachers has been
overwhelming. From July onwards,
the University of Fort Hare
will conduct an impact study on
the results of the programme and
how it is helping the children acquire
improved coping mechanisms
to deal with the stress and
challenges they face,” Fowles said.

EAST LONDON SURVEILLANCE
CAMERAS GO LIVE
CCTV surveillance cameras operating
on Wi-Fi and solar energy have
gone live in parts of East London.
Buffalo City Metro made the announcement
yesterday when
spokesman Sibusiso Cindi said the
technology would make the metro a
“smart city” that was safer for residents,
tourists and investors.
The R16-million project started in
May last year. Cindi said the cameras,
still in testing stages, went live in
areas including the Esplanade, Duncan
Village and Oxford Street intersections.
The installation of the CCTV cameras
forms part of the city’s Fibre Network
Upgrade.
“The ideal situation is that all the
cameras should operate on solar
and renewable energy to save electricity,”
said Cindi.
“The Duncan village one is live and is
operating using renewable energy.
Most of them are designed to operate
according to the conditions of a
certain area, like when there’s no
electricity or Wi-Fi they operate on
solar.”
The areas with CCTV cameras include
points and intersections at:
• Frere hospital, Amalinda main road;
• Amalinda main road and Oxford street;
• Lukin road and Oxford street;
• St George’s road and Oxford street;
• St Peter’s road and Oxford street;
• Kimberley road and Oxford street;
• Park avenue and Oxford street;
• Park avenue and Buffalo street;
• Park avenue and Beaconsfield road;
• Beaconsfield road and St John road;
• Douglas Smit highway and Black road;
• Douglas Smit highway and Parkridge
road; and
• Duncan Village Community Hall.
BCM installed the cameras to help
fight crime in the CBD, monitor and
control traffic and for general monitoring
of the areas under surveillance.
The Duncan Village community police
forum (CPF) said the cameras
could help fight crime but whether
they were operating or not was
anyone’s guess.
Ludumo Salman said: “What concerns
us is that no one is actually
sure that these cameras are working.
“A lot of crime happens daily but
whether these cameras catch the
incidences is a big guess.”
Salman said one of the cameras
was strategically positioned at the
busy Gemento traffic circle.
“That area is a crime hotspot – taxi
drivers and passengers get mugged
there daily and the camera footage
could really assist with evidence in
court.”
Salman said the owner of a local
tavern was shot and killed in December
in front of a CCTV camera.
“It could have been of assistance in
terms of evidence in court but we
don’t know whether the camera captured
the incident.”
The CPF has called for even more
cameras to be installed at the busy
Douglas Smith highway, saying it
was a haven for crime. Salman said
crime is accelerated by too many
drinking holes in the area.
Nahoon ratepayers association
member Christo Theart said the association
welcomed the rollout of the
CCTV cameras.
“My daughter lives in South Korea in
a city of 25million people in Seoul.
Their movements are captured on
camera everywhere they go, so if
you do something wrong you will be
caught.”
Theart said the cameras were a
“fantastic” initiative, especially at the
beaches where crime was rife.
“It is very sad that our visitors don’t
want to go to Cove Rock or Eastern
beach due to crime there – so we
hope these cameras will instill some
sense of safety.”

FOCUS ON TEACHERS, THANKS TO EYE EXPERT
Thoboshana Primary School
had some generous visitors
recently. Geoff Howes, retired
ophthalmologist and Rotarian,
and his team
performed and taught teachers
how to perform eye tests
for the pupils of Thoboshana.
“Vision is so important in learning.
Any visual impairment is
detrimental to these kids’
lives,” said Howes. “We need
to give these kids the ability
to see properly and support
their learning experience.”
Howes and his team- consisting
of optometric assistant at
his practice, Kirsty-Leigh Mc-
Cornston and Rotary Arcadia
President-Elect Derek Miller –
explained and taught teachers
how to perform these eye
tests. This included demonstrating
how the eye
works, how to test the children
and how to record
and read the results.
Once all the children have
been tested, those who
need glasses will receive
a pair from St John’s Clinic
who have agreed to
produce them for R60 a
pair. The Rotary Club of
Arcadia will fund the purchase
of these glasses.
Howes will also refer children
to a specialist should
their vision impairment require
more professional
assistance. Again, the
club will take care of all
the costs involved.
Howes and his team also provided
the school teachers
with the necessary equipment
to take these tests so
that future visual impairments
can be detected and alleviated
early on in a child’s schooling
career.
“He is such a generous man,”
said Howe’s life partner and
Rotary member, Eliza Voges.
“Life is like an ice- cream, if
you don’t lick it, it melts away.
With visual impairments
these kids can’t have a proper
learning experience, their
lives will melt away.”
This generous and instrumental
gesture by Howes
and his team, is however,
not the first of the Rotary
Club of Arcadia’s involvement
with the school.
The club has been affiliated
with the farm school in Nahoon
Valley since its founding
in 1989. Together with
the Emmanuel Mission, the
club has been instrumental
in the school’s founding and
success over the years.
Starting out as a small farm
school, catering to about 40
pupils from neighbouring
farms, it has now blossomed
into a school with over 300
pupils, many of whom travel
from various townships
around the area.
Over the last three years the
Arcadia Rotary have renovated
the school buildings
and donated
dustbins that are
placed around the
school grounds.
While the school is
flourishing, it still lacks
a lot of basic learning
materials like a library,
play materials in
Grade R, and a computer
lab. A fence
around the school
premises is also necessary
to keep the
children safe.
The club recently
sponsored in-class-library
cupboards and
reading books and also
funds the training
of a new Grade R
teachers. Rotary Arcadia
is also working towards

Lucky Mother
A young mother believed that it was very wrong to waste
any food when there were so many hungry people in the
world. One evening, she was giving her small
daughterher tea before putting her to bed. First she gave
her a slice of fresh brown bread and butter, but the child
said that she did not want it like that. She asked for some
jam on her bread as well.
Her mother looked at her for a few seconds and then said,
When I was a small girl like you, Lucy, I was always given
either bread and butter, or bread and jam, but never
bread with butter and jam.
Lucy looked at her mother for a few moments with pity in
her eyes and then said to her kindly, Aren't you pleased
One day a blonde woman entered an autobody shop
claiming that she’d suffered extensive damage to her
new car. The mechanic thought he’d have some fun with
her so he told her that she didn’t need him to fixed all the
dents. He said she could fix them herself by blowing into
the tailpipe as hard as she could and they’d all pop out.
The woman went home and proceeded to get down on
her hands and knees in the driveway. She was blowing
into the pipe as hard as she could and her face was
turning purple when another blonde woman walked by
and asked what she was doing. After hearing the whole
story the second blonde pauses for a moment then
responds, “Hello! The windows are down.
