In addition to this Free Online Self Defense Course. We do offer several in-person workshops and seminars. Here are some of the feedback and testimonials we've received about our many in-person women's self-defense seminars and training programs.
"I first began attending these free workshops a little over a year ago, and every single time I learn something new. I began with zero experience in self defense and I was a bit nervous since I had never thrown a punch before in my life, but all the instructors were very patient and very approachable. They encouraged us and supported us the whole way through, mainly because they believe in us. They know we are capable of so much more than what we may give ourselves credit for and they are cheering us on as we discover it for ourselves. We learn how to execute proper techniques that are effective for several situations and we also go over a series of educational topics that provide us with the tools to become situationally and environmentally aware, which I feel has helped me gain confidence in how I carry myself through my day to day. I used to walk through life with anxiety of the potential dangers that lurked beyond every corner, but now, I have changed the narrative. I no longer walk in fear, I walk with purpose. These workshops have helped me find my voice and I learned to not be afraid to use it. Maurice and his team have really created a great community of support for anyone who seeks help in self defense. I came in unsure of myself and walked out with my head held high feeling empowered." -Ashley
"On behalf of my sister and I, thank you so much for putting this workshop together. We definitely learned a lot; there are so many differences between weapons, for example. I have only attended one self-defense class (when I worked for County of Riverside as a social worker) and it did not entail all these details. We truly look forward to another workshop in the future. We are thinking of bringing our other sister as well as our mother. I definitely recommend it to everyone else out there who didn't’t have a chance to join today. I don’t recall a time when my younger sister and I ever had a chance to roughhouse the way we did today. LOL Definitely a “sister date” to remember. We had so much fun! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and passion with us.. Most importantly, for sharing your WHY.” – Linda Ramona
"Great class today! Again, thank you Maurice and to the rest of the instructors who made us all attendees feel stronger and more confident in ourselves, and specially for empowering women like me. You were all amazing! Til next time!” – Cindy
"This was my first self-defense class I have ever done and it was really great to have it be hands-on and informative. Maurice and his team gave a lot of details about the different techniques. They did a good job in role playing the techniques so we could all understand and practice them ourselves. It's a FREE class to join. I will definitely recommend it to my friends and family. I look forward to participating in upcoming classes as practice is how I will gain my confidence and perfect my self-defense skills if I would ever be in this kind of danger. Although Maurice does not charge a large fee for his teachings, I guarantee you will leave satisfied!” -Monica Nunez
"Thank you for another informative workshop. My friend and I enjoyed it and look forward to many more. -Julie Komoto
Maurice thank you so so much for another great workshop! I always walk away feeling more confident than the previous one. You're awesome! - R. Agredano
"Thank you so much Maurice Gomez, Saturdays self defense class was great and I appreciate all of the information. I will practice and be prepared and hope I am never in a situation that I need to use it or intervene for someone else. Lots of great information was shared. Continue to make others aware of what can be done to protect themselves. - Lynda Dennehy
