Describe a recent event you are fond of.
Womens Self Defense class we hold once a month. Not only because of what the class is focused on, but the empowerment that comes as a side effect of the class. To see the confidence in them selfs sky rocket is one of the best things that is learned through self defense. All ages and classes male and female get that benefit, but as a husband and father, the womens self defense has the most direct impact from what I see.
