Why is this experience important?
According to government studies of the Effects of Physical Abuse, over 2 million Canadians are physically abused every year (StatsCAN). This breaks down to approximately 5 Canadians per minute. Unfortunately, women are victims of a disproportionate amount of the violence. The methods and techniques in this course are designed to help stop the violence and not be a victim.
When assailants attack, they do it for one of two reasons. The first reason is that they think they can. The second reason is that the victim represents an opportunity. This opportunity is to subjugate and degrade others in order to feel better about themselves. This is unacceptable.
The goal of this course is to pass on the knowledge and tools required for a everyone to save themselves. As this knowledge and training reach more people, there will be fewer targets. It is our goal that one day, there will be no targets for assailants to victimize!
Who is this training for?
This course offers basic self-defence techniques that can men or women of any age, size, or shape can use. As any person is a potential victim, everyone should be trained to defend themselves.
NOTE: This course is strictly informational and does not reflect the local laws in your jurisdiction. It is important to familiarize yourself with your local laws.
