SELF-DEFENSE
SEMINARS
For Women or Youth - scheduled through
PV or MH
What
happens at the seminars?
Women:
Instructors
show how
to use leverage, momentum and vital striking points against an
attacker. Participants practice effective, easy-to-learn
blocks and strikes, as well as various other tactics including hold
breaks and counter attacks -- hands-on! Learn how to fight back, escape and survive in seemingly
indefensible situations.
Kids: Not to frighten but to emphasize avoidance,
awareness, boundaries and whom to trust. Different types of
strangers are defined and how to handle them. Hands-on
instruction about what to do in dangerous situations, including
practicing effective defense maneuvers appropriate for their age, size and
strength
-- in a safe and fun environment.
Note: Participants need not do anything that feels
uncomfortable to them.
