Women's Core IMPACT Program

This 20-hour weekend course is our most comprehensive self-defense course for women (cis & trans welcome), teen girls ages 16+, and nonbinary folks who would be comfortable in a women’s class. In a supportive, trauma-informed environment, students develop physical and verbal skills to resist threats, intimidation, and violence perpetrated by both strangers and familiar people. Scenarios students learn to defend themselves against include front confrontations, attacks from behind, attempted sexual assault, and ground fighting. The lead instructors of this class identify as women.
