We skip the boring bits and get straight to hands-on training. You’ll pick up:
- Powerful strikes using hands, elbows, knees
- Simple ways to escape chokes, wrist grabs, and body holds
- Ground survival moves to get back up if things go south
- Situational awareness techniques so you can spot trouble early and stay cool
Who Can Join
We run workshops for all kinds of groups:
- Women’s safety training is our main focus. You’ll train with other women, guided by our expert team in a safe, supportive space.

- Community empowerment sessions for apartment complexes, societies, or just your gang of friends. We can come to you.
