About this Event

Brews & Breakawasys - a Women's Self-Denfense pop up!

I will be teaching material based on 15+ years of experience practicing and teaching traditional karate. My approach is designed for beginners, scalable over time, and thoughtful to those who have lived experience with violence and trauma - it’s also just stupid fun to get together and hit things. We will learn a hand full of simple techniques that can be applied in a variety of scenarios. Empower yourself by taking one step towards increased safety for yourself and your community! Admission also includes a $7 credit down at Cloudy Cafe (also a woman owned business). Show up early or stay after to get yourself a delicious brew or pastry.

This seminar will be a great time to:

• Learn practical safety skills
• Make friends
• Touch grass!
• Practice emotional and physical regulation
• Move your body!
• Treat yo' self to something delicious

Can't wait to train together!
