PERSONAL BOUNDARY & SELF DEFENCE FOR WOMEN             *For participants 18+

This exhilarating, interactive workshop includes an outline of personal boundaries and how to defend them, with emphasis on strangers and acquaintances.  You will practice de-escalation and street-smart self-defence techniques through scenario based exercises, focusing on key target areas from standing or on the ground.  In this workshop you will discover your personal power and the tools you have to protect yourself.  Our goal is to leave you confident, aware and feeling empowered with basic skills to set, hold and enforce your boundaries in multiple situations.  This workshop addresses assault, sexual assault, harassment and online and workplace safety.

About your instructor:

Sixth Sense Self Defence was born from a passion for helping women and girls develop personal boundaries, self-confidence and awareness, while learning basic self-defence skills. Our workshops cover situational awareness, personal boundaries and a focus on simple, scalable and efficient street-smart self-defence training. sixthsenseselfdefence.ca

“Daring to set boundaries is about having the courage to love ourselves, even when we risk disappointing others.” – Brene Brown

My self-defence journey began over 30 years ago where I learned tools that I could apply to all aspects of my life and relationships, and continue to apply them daily.  Over the years, my formal karate training evolved into kickboxing, jujitsu, Krav Maga, and self-defence. 

Teaching others to be confident, to have boundaries and self-awareness, as well as the ability to defend themselves, is a passion for me.  As I give back to the communities around me, it is with respect and gratitude for all the other teachers and people in my life that have helped me along the way.  It is truly a privilege to pay this forward.
