HERO are hosting FREE self defence classes for trans people in London this January.
The fear of being physically attacked can undermine your confidence in taking control of situations. The Self Defence Course runs on two consecutive Saturdays - Saturday 5th & Saturday 12th of January - and gives you the opportunity to explore, learn and practice ways to keep yourself safe in a variety of places and situations.
Run in conjunction with Ishigaki, the LGBT Ju Jitsu group, and with support from Galop, the course will allow you to try and test a variety of self defence techniques, helping to build your confidence to deal with any difficult situations around personal safety that you may find yourself in.
There is also an opportunity to discuss any concerns or situations that you may want to examine with the course facilitators, to see if there are any particular techniques they may be able to suggest for you.
You don’t need to wear or change into any special clothing for the course, it’s best to wear what you would wear normally.
All Ishigaki facilitators who work on the course are Black Belt Instructors.
Hero request you only book a place if you are certain you can attend both sessions.
