The Safety Team/Empowerment Self Defense: We Prevent Violence & Heal Trauma

"The Safety Team was great to work with. We organized this privately for a group of friends and it went so smoothly. The information was impactful but not scary. The instructors are warm and have good humor. We all left with more confidence and will definitely be seeking out a Level 2 class!"

"Fantastic group of instructors who create a safe, welcoming learning environment for participants. I have completed the Level 1 workshop a few different times, and I always learn something new. The Safety Team has helped me recognize the power my body holds, and they've given me foundational knowledge and strategies for how to prevent and respond to violence. If you're on the fence or feel intimidated about trying this out, I would highly recommend giving it a go!"

"Last night The Safety Team (TST) came and taught a private class for Green Light Real Estate. Our agents are in and out of homes with people they have never met, day in and day out. TST gave the attendees (their daughters were included) empowerment, you could see it in their stance and faces as they left the workshop. I urge every woman and teen to take this class!"

"My partner and I attended the Level 1 class on a date night, and will definitely be attending the level 2 workshop this summer! We very much appreciated how the team cultivated a safe space for people of all different abilities and experiences. There was great information and safety tips for all ages. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to learn some important life skills, gain confidence, and/or begin a healing process!"

"Just walked out of doing Level 1 & 2 self defense classes with The Safety Team and cannot recommend these workshops highly enough. A great team of instructors who bring different insights and experience. Not only do you have the opportunity to learn some really helpful moves but they also provide necessary foundations which I loved. As someone who was looking to just build confidence in my own body after experiencing a handful of physical assaults in different scenarios, I also found the ability to vocalize my boundaries and use my body in a way that works best for me. Take these workshops and take up space!"
