Join WCSA for a free SELF-DEFENSE MASTER CLASS, provided by MALIKAH DMV.

Self defense training is one piece of empowering women to feel safe and secure, inside and outside the workplace.

The training will be led by Maisha Iman, former WCSA D&I Co-chair and MALIKAH certified with expert black-belt instruction. All MALIKAH trainers have compiled a curriculum derived from various martial arts styles, built specifically for a modern day woman. We will teach techniques centered on de-escalation-that allow you to leverage the power of your own body and voice so that you can feel safe. The class will cover basic blocks, strikes, pressure points, and verbal de-escalation. Get ready to maximize your muscle memory and play to your personal strengths. At the end, we will end with a healing space because we believe that empowerment starts with the heart.
