CHOOSE THE POWER TO CHANGE YOUR WORLD NOW!
Ensure your personal safety and eliminate risk. Strengthen your mind and body. Do you want to feel and be safer? Quick thinking and acting can save your life.
It is better to be trained than vulnerable. Our program is about fighting knowledge and survival. Women will learn how to utilize their own internal power to develop autonomy, confidence, and empowerment through our self-defense workshops.
INNER CAPACITY BUILDING.
In our self-defense workshops, women will build a new sense of confidence with the ability to protect themselves in critical and dangerous circumstances. Here at Conscious Defense, we train woman to unleash their inner emotional strength, physical strength, and their ability to protect themselves.
OUR PHILOSOPHY - OUR THINKING
We started this program as a service to women, based on our understanding that women move differently through public space and are often less able to experience freedom and self-expression without fear for their safety. We believe that women are fully capable of self-defense and equally deserving of all life has to offer without fear. The ignorance and stupidity of some men should not be allowed to prevent women from realizing their full potential or from feeling safe in private or public spaces!
It is our sincere belief that women should experience true equality with men. We are tired of seeing the negative impact on women due to fear, constant vigilance and threat of harm. All mothers, sisters and daughters deserve gender balanced environments. Enough is enough! We have seen too many women abused physically, emotionally and sexually! With training the insanity can end for women.
