Interested in self-defence? Sign up quickly for the fantastic opportunity to learn self-defence skills in a comfortable and safe environment, all at a low price through the school. Places are limited, so act fast!
The self-defence course is run by MINDSET, and will take place here at Westlake across two workshops. These will run from 12 to 6 pm on Saturday, 14 June and Saturday 21 June, in Gym 3.
The instructors keep the workshops as fun as possible while still keeping things realistic. The workshops are hands-on straight from the beginning, with no note-taking, and can often take people out of their comfort zones. They deal with worst-case scenarios and the most common attacks that women face, such as shirt grabs, chokes, wrist locks, hair grabs and many more.
You’ll need to bring appropriate clothing and something to eat, as well as an open mind, a good attitude and a willingness to learn.
To sign up for the workshops, simply pay $18 at the Payments Office or on KAMAR. There are just 80 places available, and $18 covers both workshops—you come to both of them. Westlake students have priority for places.
