NHW & SNT to deliver free self defence classes 03 Sep 21:29

Free Women's Self Defence Classes

Neighbourhood Watch are offering women the chance to learn various techniques regarding women’s self-protection. The chances of being a victim of an attack are very unlikely but you will be taught skills that could assist you in dealing with confrontational situations. The training is being offered free of charge but you will need to commit to two 1 and a 1/2 hour sessions over two weeks (one session each week). In order to be as inclusive as possible we are holding 4 events, two of which are during the day.

Date as follows:

14th and 21st September 2011 - 11.30am-1.00pm - Raynes Park - St Matthews Church Hall, Spence Road (j/w Durham Road)
12th and 19th October 2011 - 7pm-8.30pm -  Mitcham Police Station
29th November and 6th December 2011 - 7pm-8.30pm - Morden - Civic Centre
7th and 14th December 2011 - 11am-12.30pm - Wimbledon - Venue TBC

The sessions are being run by Leoni Munslow, who has 20 years experience in martial arts and holds a black belt in Japanese Jiu Jitsu, a brown belt in Judo and a purple belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ). An active competitor in domestic and international competitions, Leoni is the current British Champion in BJJ and has been nominated "UK female competitor of the year 2010" by the European Fight Network.

If you are interested in attending one of the sessions please contact the Neighbourhood Watch office at mertonnhw@met.police.uk or call 020 8649 3213.

The Raynes Park Safer Neighbourhoods team (SNT) will be on hand to provide crime prevention and personal safety advice prior to the two sessions being held at St Matthews Church Hall.
