Topics will include self defense in closed quarters, physical practice, defensive strikes, use of common objects to defend yourself, endurance and aggression exercises, defending from a seated position, and other considerations to prepare the reality of these situations.

Join us Thursday, April 28th for the final installment of our Public Transit Safety Series!
As we finish our series on public transit safety, it’s important to recognize that we are in this together as we traverse the city. We should all strive to be upstanders within our communities by actively intervening if we see others experiencing violence. This two hour interactive virtual workshop will provide a range of strategies and considerations for safely disrupting violence should you witness another commuter being mistreated. We will also take time to consider the effects of experiencing violence and how we can care for ourselves and others after a traumatic incident. While the previous two workshops were very physical, this closing workshop will be more focused on talking through common scenarios and analyzing potential strategies so that we can be as mentally prepared as we are physically.
This is a FREE virtual workshop from 7PM to 9PM!

Join us this Thursday, April 14th for the second installment of our Public Transit Safety Series!
In response to the recent surge in incidents on the subway platforms, this two hour interactive virtual workshop is designed to help New Yorkers be safer while waiting for the train or bus. Train platforms and bus stops present unique safety concerns, so we’re taking this time to strategize how best to keep ourselves safe while we wait for our rides. While we will discuss preventative measures and other strategies, this workshop will heavily focus on physical techniques to respond to potentially life-threatening situations including movement, blocks, strikes, footwork, use of common objects to defend yourself, defense against attacks from behind, and use of voice.
This is a FREE virtual workshop from 7PM to 9PM!
