Tuesday, Aug. 17: RUN — Assessing Risk and Escaping from Danger

Each session in this 5-week series (7.5 total hours of training), we’ll deeply explore one of the five safety action principles of Empowerment Self-Defense: Think, Yell, Run, Fight, Tell. In addition to physical techniques (including strikes, kicks, and releases from grabs and pins), we’ll work on situational awareness, recognizing the warning signs of violence, and personal boundary setting and enforcement. 

Open to female-identifying and GNB/GNC people ages 12+. We recommend wearing comfortable clothing and bringing a water bottle.
