Women’s Self Defense Class

Wednesdays at 9:30am in Cupertino on May 30, June 6, and June 13

Fees: $20.00 per class or $50 for all 3 classes

“Three Class Pistol Disarm and Scenario class.”
This class will provide participants with three basic disarm techniques.  The class will focus heavily on scenarios to help participants train not only how, but when a disarm is necessary.  This is not a fancy class and students will be provided reinforcement that such situations are very dangerous and serious.  However, students will finish the class with physical and verbal skills to help them succesfully defend themselves.”
