Weekend course Saturday/Sunday
Feel safer in your city. Know risks, mitigate conflict, learn "first aid self defence".
The main focus of these classes is on assertiveness, the psychological readiness for possible conflict, de-escalation and a clear knowledge of risks and chances. We work from far distance to close distance, as practical as possible.
