WOMEN's Urban Self Defense
The Women’s Urban Self Defense program differs from the Co-Ed Reality Based self defense program in that it places emphasis on issues faced by women in today’s society. This course is designed to teach girls and women how to protect themselves in a variety of all too real situations women face today: sexual harassment, sexual assault, and domestic violence. One of the most important aspects of this course is teaching women how to prepare for real conflict, emotionally and physically. This course offers knowledge and information from developing assertiveness skills to learning how to be more "situationally aware". You will become more Confident, more Self Assured, more Empowered and In Control.
