SELF DEFENCE
FREE SELF DEFENCE CLASSES
TOWN CENTRE, OCTOBER 2021 - SPRING 2022
The RTW Together BID provided 200 town centre workers the chance to attend a free professional, one hour self defence class, instructed by Surge Self Defence. We also gifted a free personal alarm for attendees.
The session covered topics and physical elements such as:
Being grabbed from behind and evading the hold, being grabbed by the wrist, escaping a chokehold, knife defence, mugging, being followed, bag defence – how what we carry can be used as a defensive weapon and the legality of self defence – the law regarding defending oneself and what we can / cannot do.
