What Our Group Clients Say

  • “Vanessa was excellent to work with. She put together a great program to help educate my group of older teen girls on how to be aware and protect themselves. She also gave great training on how to assess a threat and how to protect your boundaries. Highly recommend, this kind of training is so valuable for women/ people of all ages.”

    Girl Scout Troop Leader Liz

  • "I've taken a few of the women's self defense classes here and I cannot recommend them enough! Vanessa is such an amazing instructor who is committed to educating women on how to defend themselves with practical techniques. I believe the women's self defense is incredibly important and the skills taught in the class should be taught to every little girl. I took away so much from one class here that I decided to book Vanessa for a Women's Self Defense birthday party with all my closest girlfriends and we had an amazing time. I would recommend this gym to anyone who is interested in learning from passionate instructors and is ready to improve the confidence they have in their own body in every day life!"
