FREE Self-Defence Workshops for Girls (12+)
Northway Parish Council is pleased to be funding two free self-defence workshops delivered by Defence4Women, specialists in confidence-building self-defence training for women and girls.
These supportive sessions focus on empowerment, combining assertiveness, verbal de-escalation, practical breakaway techniques and simple, effective strikes. Instructor Tamsin delivers the workshops using a fully trauma-informed approach, giving participants choice and control throughout, and teaching grounding and breathwork techniques to help manage the common βfreezeβ response.
A brilliant opportunity for girls to build confidence, skills and self-belief in a safe, encouraging environment.
