About the Training
Our Self Defense courses are customized for marginalized populations seeking to strengthen their foundational safety in the world. We have provided training to helpers and healers (i.e. therapists, nurses, doctors, massage therapists, reiki practitioners, and similar professions) as well as young girls, teens, college age girls, LGBTQIA+ populations, older adults, and everyone has said they wished they took this course sooner.
At S.A.G.E., we believe that feeling safe in your body and in your surroundings is everyone’s birthright. We aim to specifically support and guide those who have been in marginalized populations to equip them with the tools and experience they need to face the growing challenges that arise in our society.
This course provides practical training on awareness skills, relevant self defense laws, physical skills, the use of practical self defense tools, and more. At the end of this training, you will feel more confident and rightfully empowered, allowing you to live life with less fear and limitations. The goal of this course is to teach confidence in safety skills.

I Came Into Class Thinking I was Aware But I was Completely Wrong!
"I would definitely recommend this class to others. It really helped me become aware and learn how to protect myself. I came into this class thinking I was already aware and knowledgeable on how to handle threatening situations with clients but I was completely wrong. This class really helped me highlight areas I need to further strengthen to ensure my safety in my practice. "
