About This Activity

Description

This workshop will explore how our brain controls our response during a self defense situation, how we recover from a traumatic experience, and why others play a critical role in the recovery process. We will also look at the benefits of preventative self defense training; having the knowledge in advance of an unexpected/undesirable experience, as well as the benefits of responsive self defense training; for those that have been through a traumatic experience. Regardless of timing, education is powerful and can benefit everyone. Attendees will practice basic striking on soft targets to feel the benefits of stress release and trauma release, which often occur during self defense training. Attendees will learn escapes from common grabs.
