The interest in the upcoming Women only self-defence course has been excellent. With the dark night drawing in and Christmas parties around the corner there is an increased risk to personal safety. Having a knowledge of conflict resolution and effective self defence skills puts you in an advantageous position.
There are limited places on the 6 week course so if you or someone you know wants to be on it please contact us ASAP.
With the dark nights drawing in we are about to launch a women's only self defence course which will be run over a 6 week period, one session per week. This is designed for women to empower and equip them with skills necessary for walking the streets with confidence, delivering knowledge and skills to be more aware of potential situations, diffuse this if possible and if they are unlucky enough to be involved in a violent incident, to be able to effectively deal with that situation.
With the nights drawing in and may fitness enthusiasts training in parks and running the roads the new statistics are alarming!! New figures from the Crime Survey for England and Wales show there were 3,745 reports of violence with injury in Warwickshire in the year up to March 31, 2016 - a rise of 120 per cent. This was closely followed by incidents of violence against the person which were up 71 per cent to 8,387. In the West Midlands, the picture also showed an increase in violent incidents with violence with injury up 28 per cent to 23,199 and violence against the person up 19 per cent to 43,187.
