Step onto the mat with Femme Rising for a one-hour women’s self-defense session built for every body and every experience level. In a supportive, women-only space, you’ll learn practical, real-world techniques to protect yourself with confidence—how to recognize and de-escalate threats, break free from common holds, and use your body’s natural strength to create distance and get to safety. No experience, athleticism, or special clothing required; just come as you are and leave feeling more grounded, capable, and aware. Rooted in discipline, restraint, and genuine empowerment, this session is the perfect complement to a weekend of romance, connection, and celebrating yourself.
