Group Self-Defense Workshops in Heath, OH
Practical self-defense for scout troops, sororities, schools, churches, teams and workplaces, taught by Delta's jiu-jitsu instructors.
Gracie jiu-jitsu started as self-defense for people who might be smaller than whoever attacks them, and that's the core of these workshops. Participants practice real movements with a partner, at a pace that suits the group.
Staying balanced and creating space when someone grabs or pushes you
Breaking common grips on the wrist, clothing and hair
Falling safely and getting back to your feet
What to do if you end up on the ground
Awareness, boundaries and when to leave
