Women's Self-Defense Workshop
Advertisement
Opening weekend is a big deal around here. This year, we’re giving the women in our communities a Saturday morning of their own.
Embolden Wellness & Counseling and Alyatt CrossFit are teaming up with Wisconsin Martial Arts & Fitness Center for an hour of hands-on self-defense, led by Elyse Pierce. It’s free.
Do I need any experience?
No. Come as you are, whatever your skill or fitness level.
What will we actually do?
You’ll practice staying aware of your surroundings, using your words to de-escalate a situation, and the three stages of physical self-defense: striking from a distance, escaping grabs, and defending yourself on the ground.
What if I’m nervous, or don’t want to do part of it?
That’s okay. This workshop is trauma-informed. You decide how much you take part, and you can step back or sit out at any point.
What should I wear?
Clothes you can move in. It’s interactive, so expect to get up and practice.
Can my teen come?
Yes, ages 15 and up. A parent or guardian needs to complete the waiver, either online or in person at check-in.
Can I bring a friend?
Please do! Each of you just needs to sign up.
Do I have to register?
Registering guarantees your spot, and walk-ins are welcome as space allows.
