Women Only Practical Self-Defence Workshop
About this Event
Women’s Practical Self-Defence Workshop
Arakan Martial Art x Alice in Fitnessland
Learn practical skills, build confidence, and discover how to better protect yourself in real-world situations.
Join Alice in Fitnessland and Arakan Martial Art for a practical self-defence workshop designed specifically for women. This beginner-friendly experience focuses on realistic techniques that can be applied in everyday situations, rather than traditional martial arts forms or sport-based training.
Our goal is to provide a safe, supportive environment where you can develop confidence, improve awareness, and learn effective self-defence skills through realistic, scenario-based training.
Throughout the workshop, you’ll explore practical strategies including:
Recognising and responding to potentially unsafe situations.
Escaping common grabs and holds.
Creating opportunities to get to safety.
Developing confidence through practical movement and repetition.
Understanding simple, effective self-defence principles that work under pressure.
What to Expect
👉 Scenario-based training: Learn practical techniques for realistic situations you may encounter.
👉 Expert instruction: Train with experienced Arakan Martial Art instructors specialising in practical self-defence.
👉 Supportive environment: A welcoming, inclusive space designed for all fitness levels and no prior experience.
👉 Confidence-building experience: Improve your awareness, decision-making, and ability to respond under pressure.
👉 Positive community: Meet like-minded women while learning valuable lifelong skills.
Whether you come on your own or with friends, you’ll leave with greater confidence, practical knowledge, and a stronger understanding of personal safety.
