“This special 2-hour seminar is designed for first-time self-defense students and will teach participants six critical self defense techniques. Law enforcement officials and survivors of sexual assault helped identify common attack strategies that a male assailant is likely to use on a woman. From hair-grabs and choke-holds, to bear hugs and weapon defenses, the Women Empowered self-defense seminar will introduce the six most important women’s self-defense techniques. This is especially aimed at women aged 13 and older.”
Women Are Worth Defending. Self-defense is a mindset and it begins with the idea that women can defend themselves. Regardless of their age or physical condition, women can and should defend themselves. Learn how to survive an attack by a larger, stronger assailant.
