Come & Try Self Defence Classes are a great way to build your physical and mental confidence, awareness and practical skills for dealing with stressful or threatening situations.

Across each one-hour session, you’ll learn and practise basic self defence techniques in a supportive environment. Sessions include a warm-up, self defence forms and techniques, pad work and power training, scenario-based activities, and a warm down and stretch.

The sessions cover reactional self defence, situational awareness, verbal barrage, breaking holds and grips, vital striking, practical scenarios and using everyday objects for self defence.

Come along for a single session or book all six sessions to build your skills progressively.
