Empowerment Self Defense Class on July 30 - sign up today

Why Empowerment Self Defense?
Studies have shown that the curriculum (taught by many and diverse instructors and organizations) a marked decrease in sexual assaults and attempted sexual assaults, an overall increase in confidence in daily life (not just violence prevention.

I have personally taught a version – but incomplete – this concept. Since becoming certified as a Level 1 instructor by ESD Global, I have adopted this curriculum, which is easily accessible by anyone – and is especially suited for the non-martial artist.
Using skill building exercises based on de-escalation, boundary setting skills, this two hour class will give you confidence and tangible skills to take into your daily life.

Tigerlily will be presenting this workshop with a variety of content so this will be an ongoing series to introduce new students and allow repeat students to build their knowledge and skills.
Sign up or get more information at the link below.

Join us for a dynamic, inclusive self-defense workshop that goes beyond physical techniques—learn how to set boundaries, use your voice, and trust your instincts.
