This course is provided by The Scottish Centre for Personal Safety and takes place from 0930-1700.
The course is split into two parts:
Theory: including your legal rights around self-defence, how to spot warning signs before something happens, using your voice and body language confidently, and practical advice for situations such as being followed.
Practical: simple, effective techniques for breaking away from grabs, escaping holds, and defending yourself if attacked from the front, from behind or on the ground. There will also be an optional chance to practise with a padded instructor.
No previous experience or fitness level is needed. Please wear comfortable clothes and trainers and bring water.
There will be plenty of time for questions, and you're welcome to take part at whatever level feels comfortable for you.
Cost: £100+VAT
