Wellness Series: SETpoint Self-Defense Workshop

April 19, 2022 @ 5:30 pm - 8:30 pm

Free
  • « Developing a Response to Disclosure
  • Burgatory PAAR Milkshake Benefit »

In celebration of SAAM and PAAR’s 50th anniversary, PAAR is partnering with SETpoint to offer survivor-focused and trauma-informed Empowerment-Based Self Defense coaching, with a core foundation to Believe in Our Strengths and Defend What We Value.

In this Empowerment Self Defense session, we’ll discuss and practice some very simple
and practical self defense tools. Participants will focus on boundary setting, as well as learn the ways that their bodies are engineered to be strong. We’ll practice using our strengths in ways that will maximize effectiveness, building confidence in our ability to defend ourselves.  We will discuss
common objects that can be used as supplemental self defense tools.

Instructors for this workshop will be:

Lisa Nakamura, Sr. Master and 7th Degree Black Belt in Shaolin Kung Fu, certified Sexual Harassment and Rape Prevention (SHARP) instructor, certified Escape & Evasion instructor, and trained Sexual Assault Counselor. Dr. Michele Montag, 4th Degree Black Belt in Shaolin Kung Fu, certified Sexual Harassment and Rape Prevention (SHARP) instructor, certified Escape & Evasion instructor, and trained Sexual Assault Counselor.
