Women's Self-Defense Workshop
With Lauren Carballo, Certified RAD Instructor
Thursday, April 16, 2026 6:15pm
We are very pleased to be offering a basic self-defense course for women (high-school and older). It is a program aimed at empowering women by:
Educating them about risk awareness, prevention and avoidance strategies, plus teaching self-defense maneuvers that can be used if attacked.
Instructor Lauren Carballo is certified through RAD (Rape Aggression Defense) Systems and has taught this course at College. The workshop will touch on some of the basics within that course and will include a discussion followed by hands-on self-defense training.
Please do not wear jewelry to the workshop but be sure to wear sneakers.
There is a waiver form which you will be required to sign the night of the workshop.
Class is limited to 20 participants.
