Krav Maga Self Defense class. 

The seminar will be based on our STAY AWAY Program and is for women only. We use both male and female instructors as the session will focus on teaching awareness, prevention, building self-confidence, recognizing and utilising your natural instincts to stay safe and grow stronger mentally and physically. 


There will also be a short warm down and Q&amp;A time afterwards to address any queries or questions.
No equipment or previous experience is necessary but please remember to bring water.
Learning Krav Maga is not only about preventing attacks! It is also a life-changing experience that will stay with you forever and empower you in everyday life!

We will be looking at the psychology of attackers at the start and promoting empowerment. For the physical techniques, we will be looking at how to mark your personal space while de-escalating and avoiding a fight. Then we&#x27;ll look at how to fight back if a fight is unavoidable (vulnerable points to aim for).

Then we will look at chokes, knife threats, hair and shirt grabs, bear hugs and ground techniques that could escalate to rape scenarios.

There will be an option to exclude any of the above scenarios. Moreover, to attend and observe. 

This course is for women and is connected to our Women of Woodlands Support Group. Priority is given to members of this support group. 

Our capacity is 20 members we will be outside and observing strict social distancing rules. 

Meet at our community Terrace on 66 Ashley St. G3 6HW Please be prompt so we can make the most of our time. We will be outside for the duration so please wear suitable clothing that is easy to move in and warm.
