Details
Join us for a hands-on self-defense workshop led by Nikki Chiavuzzi of Deer Lady Defense. We’ll start small and build together, with care taken to meet you where you are. Presented in conjunction with An Indigenous Present, the class will cover how to protect yourself during any altercation for safety and survival, foundational movements such as breaking out of grips and body locks, and defense against higher probability attacks along with counter–human trafficking education. Students will leave feeling confident in core grappling concepts. We’d love for you to keep growing; continuing your training at a local gym after the seminar is highly encouraged!
