Self Defense

Overview

NEW! Self Defense Class for late teens and young women

We are thrilled to partner with SDSS Martial this Fall to offer a self defense class. In this course we will be focusing on practical self defense techniques that cover various situations that can occur if being attacked.  We will also cover how to generate striking power regardless of size and strength.  We will be doing a lot of partner work so the techniques can be practiced in real time in a safe manner.

All students should wear comfortable athletic leggings, an old t-shirt (the shirt will be pulled in class and may be damaged), and tennis shoes.

Master essential life-saving skills before you head off to college or a new city—sign up now and be prepared for anything!
