The Basics
A Women’s Introduction
to Self Defence and Martial Arts
Who Can Take This Workshop?
The Basics is designed
to teach women essential self defence skills while introducing
some common concepts and techniques of the martial arts.
The course is open to women over the age of 18. Interested
participants who are under the age of 18 require the signed
consent of a parent or legal guardian. The Basics is
created for women, by a woman, and is taught by a female
instructor.
What Is Covered In This Workshop?
The Basics is an 8-week program,
with classes held once per week. Classes focus on an exciting
and dynamic mix of essential self defence skills, such as
kicks, strikes, trapping, ground survival, use of environmental
weapons and more. In addition to teaching key physical techniques
that will help you detect, avoid and escape potentially violent
confrontation, The Basics explores
factors like situational awareness, dealing with psychological
and verbal intimidation, and how to tap in to your ferocious
spirit.
Why Not Give It a Try?
Ever wanted to try the martial arts? The Basics gives
you the chance to experience some of the core elements shared
by many martial arts, such as terminology, footwork, and
common techniques, while focusing exclusively on realistic
self defence strategies in a women-only environment. In most
cases, we let you try a class before you commit to the full
course (drop-in fee may apply). Of course, enrolment is limited,
so you will need to pre-register by contacting us.
With the emphasis on having fun and working within your
own ability, The Basics is designed
for beginners of all fitness levels who would like to discover
self defence skills and learn about the martial arts in a
women-only environment. Longer than our 4-hour Smart
Move self defence primer, The Basics lets
you dedicate more time to honing important self defence tools,
and might just give you the weekly workout you’ve been
looking for!
