FREE Reclaiming Safety: Women’s Self-Def

Service Description

This free 8-week programme is designed to help women feel more aware, more confident and more prepared in everyday situations. Each week includes 45 minutes of practical self-defence and personal safety skills, followed by a short guided session around confidence, boundaries and how this all shows up in real life. We’ll cover things like: Awareness and recognising risk Posture, voice and presence Boundary setting and assertiveness Practical self-protection and escape awareness Trusting your instincts Recognising red flags Building confidence in your own decisions Your Instructor: The self-defence side is taught by Taeo, and he is qualified to the absolute hilt. He has over 12 years’ experience in the industry, including close protection work, international deployments and high-profile assignments across the UK and internationally, and holds qualifications in personal security and self-defence instruction, knife defence and awareness, advanced behavioural awareness and hostile threat detection, amongst a million others. But the reason this matters to him is personal too. Through all of that training and real-world experience, recognised that some of the women closest to him, the women he loves and wants safest in the world, had never been taught the things that had become second nature to him. This became a personal mission for him: to take skills he has spent years learning and make them practical, understandable and genuinely useful for women who may never have been taught them before. The hope is that you never need to use the physical side of what he teaches, but you leave knowing you could. Funded Programme Attendance Policy Your place is fully funded and spaces are limited. If you can’t attend, just let us know beforehand. Two no-shows without letting us know will mean your place is released to another woman waiting to join. You’ll also complete two quick tick-box questionnaires, one at the start and one at the end, to help us show our funders the difference the programme makes.
