Self Preservation with Sisters in Self Defense

Join Sisters in Self Defense in the T!C studio for a hands-on workshop where you’ll learn techniques for protecting yourself and others from racially motivated aggression in public spaces. Participants will gain practical knowledge about what actually happens in a street altercation, how to avoid dangerous situations and de-escalate conflict, and, if no other option is available, how to move against an attacker. Sometimes when we are in the presence of danger, our bodies naturally produce what is called a “freeze” response. We will talk about how recognize this and train ourselves to circumvent it, or as Bruce Lee said, “Be like water”. All who attend will be invited to share their experiences and questions with the instructors.
