Self-defense class for teenage girls
High school and college-aged girls who are residents of Lincoln and Sudbury are invited to participate in RESIST (Realistic Escape Strategies and Instinct-based Self-defense Training), a course that teaches how to escape from an attacker by using instinct-based moves. The two-session class is taught by the Lincoln Police Department on Monday and Wednesday, March 14 and 16 from 3:30-6:30 p.m. at Lincoln-Sudbury Regional High School. The class is free, but participants must pre-register and the class limited to 16 students.
On Day 1, we will talk about general safety and dating safety before learning and then practicing physical self-defense moves like strikes, blocks and knee strikes. For Day 2, students and instructors will don protective gear and participants will be “attacked” using the learned moves to escape. This part of the course is intense but amazing and empowering. For questions and to register, please contact Jena Salon at jenasalon@gmail.com. This class is funded by the Ogden Codman Trust, the Domestic Violence Services Network, Inc., and the Lincoln Police Department.
