Self-Defense Class for Women & Teenage Girls
Sunday, April 26, 2:00-3:30
Middletown SDA Fellowship Hall
We live in a dangerous world, especially for all those of the female gender. It is vital that every female know how to avoid putting themselves unwittingly in danger and how to defend themselves should they be attacked. At this class we will not only learn the common places that women fail to protect themselves, but will be able to see and practice hands-on methods of improving your chances of escaping. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn how to protect yourself and all those you love. The class will be taught by Garrett Watson, owner of MADE Fitness and Training Center, who teaches at LMPD.
Space is limited, so sign up today. Invite your friends and family members to attend as well. There is a $10 fee for each attendee.
