Hello Everyone,
We are officially kicking off the Mega Self Defense Program at the LightHouse. This series of workshops was developed specifically for people with a visual impairment. How would you ensure your safety from an attacker if you are unable to get away swiftly? What laws and issues affect and protect you? Learn the physical techniques and discuss topics that pertain to you and your safety. Check out the attached flyer or the information below.
Come to the next workshop on Saturday December 19th from 3pm to 6pm

Hello. I saw the classes you are offering. I recently started a self defense forum and have included a sticky thread for organizations such as yours’ to post their class schedules. I am trying to get as many as possible for a resource to the public for classes such as yours.
Please feel free to post your future schedules there and we can help get the word out.
We are located at

We also provide a link to spot crime dot com. They will keep you abreast of crime in your neighborhood and even keep you posted with periodic emails. Good luck with your classes and I hope we can be of help in your efforts.
