The Women’s Department of ICCI and women4women DLR jointly were delighted to present a full day Self-Defence / Assertiveness Course for women on Saturday 5th April 2014.
Two instructors, Helma and Valli travelled from Germany to offer their expertise to an enthusiastic group of twelve women.
The morning session consisted of practical demonstrations on how to defend and assert oneself in threatening situations.
The afternoon session followed which focused on the psychological aspect of self-defence. Role-plays and relaxation techniques combined with learning the theory of self-defence made the afternoon as equally enjoyable as the first half.
Thanks must be given to the instructors for their learned and sage advice and also to the dozen women who dedicated their day to educating themselves in this important field.
