A Women’s Defense Class If you missed this one last year, you won’t want to miss it again… Have you ever thought about what you'd do if attacked in a dark parking lot? Do you want to feel more confident in the event you have to protect yourself or your family? This class is designed to enable you with the resources to act and to reduce an assailant’s willingness to act. We will discuss the six zones of safety from the safest to the most dangerous, including real life stories and statistics. This is a “hands-on” class and you will have the opportunity to practice self-defense techniques in each zone.
