Self Defense – Knowing that you are capable of defending yourself and your loved ones builds assertiveness and character and enhances a confident mindset in life, love and career.
Why Self-Defense Matters with Girl, unKnown Inc. – Traditionally women are taught by society to feel helpless and incapable. Self-defense training helps students to discover and explore their true strength, in all aspects of life – not just while under threat of physical harm, and serves as a launching point to live freer, bolder, safer lives.
