About the event

Empowerment in Action: Self-Defense for Women
Join Shihan Diane Wallander for this empowering, woman-led self-defense seminar designed to help you feel confident, secure, and powerful in your body. This trauma-informed, intensive session will not only teach you practical self-defense skills but also strengthen your trust in your intuition and your ability to protect yourself.

Participants will build self-confidence through improved fitness and training in the striking arts while learning essential self-defense techniques, including:

>Hand/arm and leg/foot striking | Build strength and precision to deliver effective strikes.
>Blocks, deflections, and evasions | Learn how to respond quickly and confidently to threats.
>Defenses against wrist/arm and body grabs | Develop techniques to break free from holds with ease.
>Defenses against chokes | Gain the skills to stay calm and respond effectively under pressure.
>Defenses while seated or lying down | Learn how to protect yourself from any position.

This seminar is open to all levels of fitness and experience — from beginners to advanced practitioners. All ages 12 and up are welcome and encouraged to join. Step into your strength, sharpen your instincts, and leave feeling more empowered and confident in your ability to protect yourself.

To ensure that you can maximize the benefits of this series, please note the following:

Class begins promptly at the time listed on the calendar. Doors will be locked once class begins.

Please plan to arrive between 10-15 minutes before class starts.

There may be some stress on the ankles and knees, so we recommend that students consider a simple Ace ankle and/or knee brace to support the joints, if necessary.
