Build Confidence And Safety With Self Defence In Bucasia

Self defence starts with self protection.

By being aware of your surroundings, having a strong mental attitude and confident physical behaviour, you are less likely to be confronted by a threatening situation.

Knowledge of self defence provides confidence if you are confronted, and techniques to counter the attack.

Self defence has roots within martial arts; however basic martial arts techniques are easy to learn and if practised, combined with the right mindset, will provide you with the confidence and tools to defend yourself if required.

A Women’s introduction to self defence will be held on Saturday 5th April at the Community Hall, 24 Wallace Street Bucasia.

This course will be run by Helle Smith, and is designed to provide an overview of theoretical and practical foundations of women’s self defence. This is an inclusive workshop where Helle will tailor the session to meet your needs, so that you leave the session feeling more confident about your personal safety. All skill levels welcome.

This two-hour introductory course will provide insight into the comprehensive two-day Women’s Self Defence workshop, which Helle will coordinate the weekend of 24 May.

The comprehensive course in May is an in-depth program designed to empower women with confidence, knowledge and skills to protect themselves.

“When it comes to self defence, It is better to have the power and not need it
than to need it and not have it.”  - Kevin Shearer
