What it’s all about
Self defence isn’t only about defending yourself if you are
attacked. Self defence starts with seeking respect in everyday
interactions. It is about recognising what is important to you,
standing up for your rights, and voicing your preferences. Self
defence includes recognising when you need to put your defences up
and when it is safe to let people in. This suite of workshops
provides the foundational self defence skills towards building
respectful relationships with friends, family, and colleagues,
identifying interactions that pose threat, and defending
yourself.
