Protect Yourself: Register for a Women’s Self Defense Class
Police Offer FREE Women’s Self Defense Classes
The Fairfax County Police Department, in partnership with the Fairfax County Law Enforcement Foundation, is holding evening self-defense classes for all women, 13 and older. Brought about by popular demand and request, the classes fill quickly. They are held bi-weekly from 6-9 p.m. in various locations throughout Fairfax County, and are FREE of charge.
Classes involve instruction on topics of risk awareness, risk reduction, crime prevention strategies, as well as hands-on training in physical defense techniques. This is not a martial arts course. Attendees will have the chance to test their skills in a controlled environment and will practice their new skills using realistic scenarios.
