Queer & Well Presents - A TGNC Self-defense Training Class

Join the SF LGBT Center, The Transgender District, LGBT Asylum Project and LYRIC for the last class in our TGNC Self-defense series for 2025.

This class will be led by the team from My Occupational Defense. Our intention is for folks to learn simple and effective tools and tactics for community to use in order to defend against physical assault. We will cover :

• Basic defense against push/grab/punch
• Basic defense against a wrist grab
• How to use an everyday item as a tool for self-defense
• Verbal de-escalation exercise and tactics
• Situational awareness, exercise and tactics
  

• We have only 20 spots available for this class - please do not sign up if you are unsure about attending.

• Please note that this is a practical hands on class - it is not a lecture

• All ages welcome
• Please wear comfortable, movement friendly clothing

This class is taught by My Occupational Defense. You can find out more about the class here https://www.selfdefenseforthepeople.com/

Self Defense for the People™ is a unique program for everyone who wants to learn street-smart self defense to protect themselves, their loved ones, and their peers. We believe de-escalation and verbal self defense are just as important as physical defense techniques.

Classes are taught in a simple and effective manner for all people regardless of fitness level or age. No prior experience in self defense is required. This is a program that provides experienced instructors and lessons in a nurturing and supportive space.
