Women's Self Defense Class

Join us for a 2-hour women’s basic self-defense seminar! This seminar will include an introduction to situational awareness, understanding personal space, hands-on practice of basic self-defense (tailored for women, including – grips, leverage, maintaining distance, and using everyday objects for defense), verbal de-escalation, maintaining spatial awareness, emergency response planning, and a Q&A session.

The goal of this seminar is for participants to leave with practical knowledge and confidence in self-protection.
