SAMI-X WOMEN "Defend Yourself!" Women's Self-Defense

DEFEND YOURSELF!

Weekend Seminar for Women's Self-Defense

Set boundaries. Recognize dangers. Act confidently.

How do I react when a situation becomes uncomfortable or threatening? How do I set clear boundaries? And what can I do if I actually need to defend myself physically?

In our “Defend Yourself!” weekend seminar, women and girls learn to recognize dangerous situations early, present themselves confidently, and protect and defend themselves with simple, effective methods.

This is about much more than individual self-defense techniques. We combine practical training with psychological fundamentals, danger recognition, prevention, and realistic role-playing.

What to Expect

You will learn among other things:

• to perceive and assess dangers early

• to set and communicate personal boundaries clearly

• to present yourself confidently and act decisively

• to apply simple and effective self-defense techniques

• to overcome existing inhibitions in dangerous situations

• to use your voice, body language, and your own capabilities purposefully

• to remain capable of action even under stress

The selected techniques are deliberately uncomplicated, realistic, and quick to learn. The goal is not to master as many techniques as possible, but to learn a few effective options that can actually be used in a real emergency.

Our Goal

We want to equip women with tools that allow them to move through their daily lives more safely, attentively, and confidently.

This includes both knowledge of psychologically and tactically sensible behavior as well as concrete physical options for self-defense.

Because self-defense does not only begin when a physical attack occurs.

Prerequisites

For women & girls aged 14 and above.

Minor participants can attend accompanied by an adult participant.

No prior knowledge in martial arts or self-defense is required.

“I entered the workshop very skeptically and come out of the two days feeling very empowered and positive. […] The content and techniques taught are so simple and effective that any woman can learn them. […] Contrary to my expectations at the beginning, I feel significantly more capable of defending myself and navigate the world with much more awareness and a different sense of security.”
