Planned and instructed by women, our women's self-defense series aims to empower with applicable self-defense techniques, from wrist grabs to knife threats.
The series will be held on Fridays from 5pm-6pm, 2/3 - 3/10 for women ages 16+. Space for the series is limited, so sign up in advance! You can sign up for a single session or for the entire series. If this time does not work for you, please come to the open house to discuss options! We want to reach as many women as possible with this important information.
