Join us for a Women’s Self-Defence (trans-inclusive) workshop, an accessible and confidence-building introduction to personal safety. The session combines discussion and simple physical techniques, with discussions grounded in an anti-oppressive approach that challenges myths that blame women for experiencing violence and encourages participants to consider what works best for them. Participants will learn easy-to-remember strikes, blocks, and wrist releases, with instruction designed for all fitness and ability levels.
