PLEASE READ IN FULL BEFORE REGISTERING:
Hello and thank you for your interest in Wednesdays with Wen Do! We are a long standing organization for women’s self defence, with instructors local to Windsor for the very first time! We’re excited to offer these shorter workshops to give Windsor women a feel for what we do.
Event Description:
Wednesdays with Wen Do is a 3-hour taster of our self defence training for women and girls (trans and cisgender) ages 10 and up. Each Wednesday is a stand alone workshop - you can register for one or all of the sessions!
We will include a selection of content from our 2-Day Basic Course, which includes: physical and verbal self-defence techniques, awareness and avoidance of threatening situations, and discussions of sexual violence, relationship violence, harassment, and more. This is accessible self defence - we invite participants to look at how our bodies work right now – without changing a thing. All of our work is from the deeply held value that it's never your fault - breaking down victim blame is one of the core pieces of our workshop.
Dates & Times: These workshops take place on Wednesday evenings from 6-9pm. You’ll be asked below which of the dates you’d like to register for.
Please do your best to arrive 10 minutes early so we can begin on time.
Location: The workshop is in person and hosted at a variety of locations in Windsor, Ontario. More location information will be provided by email to registrants ahead of the workshop.
Eligibility: Wen Do Women’s Self Defence is available to women and girls (transgender & cisgender) ages 10 and up.
