Empowerment through Self-Defence Workshop

Good afternoon all,

 

Action Breaks Silence will be running an Empowerment through Self-Defence Workshop at Turing House School on the 12th October 2025 from 10am-2pm. There are only 70 places for the public and booking opened on Monday 16th June – (details attached).

 

This is a Mother-Daughter workshop and is only for Women and Girls over 11 years old.

 

The workshop aims to:

  • Prevent abusive and violent behaviour against women and girls
  • Break down the myths around violence against women and girls and “stranger danger”. Dispel the “monster myth” and understand who the real perpetrators are
  • Reframe ideas of femininity and girls' and women’s bodies, empowering participants to own their bodies and explore their dynamic strength both mentally and physically
  • Build confidence in their own capacities and unleash their “inner warrior”
  • Reframe victimisation and fear
  • Educate around fear, the adrenal dump and verbal diffusion skills
  • Identify target points on the perpetrator's body and resistance strategies

    •  

    Please do share this with your Richmond community and any partners who may be interested in signing up or attending the event.

     

    Kind regards
