Knowles Karate Academy4378 W 3rd St (@ S. Manhattan Place)Los Angeles, CA 90020Join us for Week 1 of our Women's Self-Defense Program - Beginner Level 1 on Thursday mornings. This 5-week program is for beginners who have never done women's self-defense or those who may have some experience and want to brush up on their techniques.
You will learn both striking and grappling techniques for standing and ground situations - as most attackers will attempt to get the victim to the ground in the majority of cases. Our classes will put you in real-life situations so you can train yourself to think and react quickly. The aim is to gain confidence in yourself and your abilities to identify, avoid and protect yourself against a dangerous assailant. In each class you will learn 1 standing, 1 ground and 1 striking technique, along with practice time. At the end of the program, you will test yourself and your new skills as you face simulated attacks. SIGN-UP FOR THE FULL 5-WEEKS OR DROP-IN TO INDIVIDUAL CLASSES.
