About this Event


Back by popular demand!

Tuff Love Self-Defense and Compassion In Oakland are hosting another edition of our popular Free 8-Week Intro to Self-Defense Workshop Series at Four Elements Fitness gym.

Discover what our minds, voices, and bodies can do.

Learn how to protect yourself in a safe, supportive and empowered environment! Tuff Love Self-Defense’s FREE 8-WEEK INTRO TO SELF-DEFENSE WORKSHOP SERIES teaches awareness and safety strategies to avoid assaults before they happen. You’ll also learn effective physical techniques addressing the most common attack situations: being pushed or pulled, punched, cornered, grabbed by the wrist and hair, choked, or pinned to the ground. Rather than relying on strength, you will learn principles of leverage, timing and energy efficiency to defend against a stronger assailant. Regardless of your age, size, strength or physical ability, you can learn the techniques of self-defense while gaining an increased sense of personal confidence and empowerment.

Classes are designed to teach a specific self-defense technique with skills building over the 8 weeks. Class includes warm-up exercises, discussion of safety principles, and instruction in a specific self-defense technique practiced with a partner. Class ends with drills to build confidence and strengthen reflexes. No experience necessary.
