Our workshops are not the dramatic self defense you see in movies. We skip the flashy stuff and stick to what really works when things get ugly. If you’re tired of people saying, *“bas yeh kar lo, sab theek ho jayega”* (just do this, everything will be fine), you’ll fit right in here. ### What You’ll Experience In two hours, you’ll get a taste of real-world self defense for women. Doesn’t matter if you’ve never set foot in a gym. We start with a quick fitness check, so you know your strengths. You’ll learn basic striking and grappling, not just random moves - we put you in actual situations to see how it feels. Coaches give personal feedback, fix your mistakes, and show you what to do next if you want to keep learning. Think of this as a women’s self defense workshop that’s honest about what it can and can’t do. ### Mindset Over Moves Honestly, your mind is your first weapon. We work on building your mental switch - spotting danger, handling stress, and keeping your cool. My coach used to say, *“Kutte bhonkte hain, haathi chalte rehta hai”* (dogs bark, the elephant keeps walking). That’s what we want for you - unshakeable focus. ### Our Vibe No toxic gym vibes. Women train together, supported by both male and female coaches. Moms, students, working women - doesn’t matter where you come from. It’s a safe training for women, where everyone helps each other. You’ll feel the energy the minute you walk in. ### The Start of Something Real This isn’t magic - you won’t become a ninja in one session. But it’s a real starting point. If you’re serious, you can join our regular batches and build the skills that stick for life. ## Highlights Browse through Bodyforce Fight Club's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/bfc_bodyforce/womens-self-defense/featured) - [Video: This is the difference between what you see online and what actually works on the street.

For us, this is family, not just a gym. I’m a fighter, a coach, Kannadiga-Mallu, stubborn as they come. People said ‘do this, not that’, but my coach taught me - let them bark, you walk.

This is our meditation. ### My work - **Martial Arts & Fitness Training**: We train MMA, Boxing, Kickboxing, BJJ, Muaythai, Wrestling, fitness. Special Kalaripayattu martial arts classes too. - **Fight Like A Girl - Self Defense**: Workshops for women to find real confidence and learn to hit back, no apologies needed. - **MMA Training for Kids**: Kids come in shy, leave stronger. We focus on basics, discipline, and building self-respect. - **Coaches Who Train With You**: Champions teaching champions. We sweat with you, push you, and keep it real. - **Our Vibe**: Brotherhood, Not Just a Gym: This is a reality check. Seniors help juniors.
