Women’s REALISTIC Self Defence

Unlike most self-defence course available for Women, these specialized workshops do not solely focus on the physical side of self-defence.

The largest form of abuse in today’s society is emotional, not physical. It is the emotional reaction and scars that in most cases last the longest. Shoto-Chi is an art that specializes in the realistic approach to conflict resolution. It does so through the understanding of human behaviour. It is the signals we emit that determine the outcome. Simply put it is “cause and effect”.

By learning how to emit the right signal and understanding signals in others and our surroundings, the possibility of even being assaulted to begin with is dramatically reduced. Studies have indicated that 55% of communication is the non-verbal signals we emit (Body Language), 38% is how we emit the verbal side of communication and only 7% of communication is the actual words that we speak.

There is still the obvious need for learning how to defend ourselves in a physical encounter. These workshops are taught from a realistic angle and target specific triggers within those who participate.

The workshops vary in duration and focus on areas such as: Control of Personal Space, Verbal Communication Techniques, Body Language, Personal Security, Conflict Psychology, Applied Self-Defence Dynamics, Self-Confidence & Awareness, Personal Well-Being and Emotional Constraint.
