The class, open to all female University faculty, staff and students, teaches women realistic self-defense tactics and techniques, covering awareness, prevention, risk reduction and avoidance.
This course enables participants through hands-on training and teaches them how to take an active role in their own self-defense and psychological well-being. Nationally certified instructors provide students with information on physical and non-physical defense options as well as insight into the mindset of an attacker. Participants must attend both days of the class for successful completion. To sign up, contact Nicole Rife (nrife@clemson.edu).
