About this Event

Keep Growing Dreams Presents: Self Defense with Kris

📅 Wednesday, July 16th🕕 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM📍 Howell Territorial Park13901 NW Howell Park Rd, Portland, OR

Join us for a powerful and affirming evening of Self Defense with Kris, designed for BIPOC folks ages 9 and up. In this free community class, Kris will share 3 essential self-defense moves used to break free from body grabs—skills that center personal safety, awareness, and empowerment.

The 3 self defense moves:

  1. How to do an armlock
  2. How to break free from a wrist lock/grab
  3. What to do when your bear hugged grabbed

It's going to be a fun, active class! We will be invited to pair up and switch partners to get hands on real experience with different sized people.

We'll also nourish our bodies with nutrient-dense cultural foods from the Global Majority, alongside GudBru kombucha and fresh herbal tea to sip and connect in community.

🌿 Free event — registration required

Come as you are. Let’s grow stronger, together.
