Urban Jungle Self Defense also offers self-defense workshops that are specifically designed to keep you safer in the real world. While our martial arts courses also focus on dealing with daily stressors or situations that could be considered threatening, the self defense workshops are perfectly suited for those that do not have any martial arts training.

Our three-hour workshops in self defense demonstrate and teach a variety of techniques and a blend of street-smart mixed martial arts designed to use setting, breaking and using leverage to effectively defend oneself against an attacker.

Tony and Michelle are both passionate about empowering not just people, but especially little girls, young women and mothers. By providing these women with self defense techniques and skills, they are able to more effectively deal with abuse such as domestic violence, rape, physical attacks and home invasions, just to name a few. So many attacks are from people that we may already know and it’s important to be able to expect the unexpected from someone familiar.

The Urban Jungle Self Defense Workshops cover the basic, countermoves that will provide instant results. These moves are wonderful in that they do not require any further or ongoing training. Although the subject matter can be intense, the class is fun and lighthearted and quickly builds confidence and self-empowerment in the students.

As the class becomes more familiar with the moves, the instructor moves into the more uncomfortable moves that push the boundaries of personal space. While it may not feel comfortable, it is where an attacker wants to be, and moving the attacker out of that personal space becomes key.

Students start to see the practical applications of the moves and they quickly soak up the techniques and knowledge being offered. The class finished with the attacker getting geared up in a full padded suit. Each woman gets the chance to experience a simulated attack and then apply her recently acquired knowledge to get out of the comfort zone, defend herself and neutralize the threat.

The great thing is that you cannot make a mistake in the class. The only mistake is not fighting. The instructors and other students coach each woman through the experience, reminding them of the moves and confidence they now have in their arsenal. The students begin to realize the power of what they have learned, and share that knowledge with the other students with an energy that cannot be found elsewhere. That energy comes from the fact that you now know that when faced with a dangerous situation, you have the ability to make a difference.

Our workshops are extremely valuable for women as it teaches skills, endurance, education and determination. Urban Jungle’s workshop teaches women simple, yet highly effective techniques to help them escape and/or stop a potential attack. Instructors place ultimate emphasis on teaching skills to improve a woman’s ability to defend herself against a larger opponent, and to live with a greater awareness of her surroundings.

The class is guaranteed to instill a confident mindset in what could be a life-and-death situation. Knowing that you have the capacity to effectively deal with a threat is supremely empowering. This course was built and intended for women 18 years and older.

At the end of the course, each participant is presented with an official Urban Jungle certificate of completion. Many women that need the class the most may never sign up for it and participants are encouraged to share their new skills with a woman they know needs that information.
