Learning Self-Defense

We are our own best protectors. That knowledge can open up your world!
YOU ARE WORTH FIGHTING FOR!
My super power is empowering others!
I have been passionate about self-defense my entire life and my training includes the GFB Speaker Academy, IMPACT LA, Ground Fighting, Defense Against the Armed Assailant, and FAST defense.
Intimidated by learning self-defense? The skills I teach are simple, practical and accessible! There are no complicated moves or elaborate sequences to remember. Anyone of any age, size or skill level can learn the techniques during a single session. Not only that, but they can be immediately applied to your life the moment you leave!
In an ideal world, no one would need these skills; and until we live in that world, it is a gift to be as knowledgeable as possible about being your own best protector by learning self-defense.
New Public Self-Defense Classes Offered In SoCal!
By popular demand, I'll be offering public classes in Los Angeles and virtually throughout the year!
My Badass Basics Workshop is a 2hr hands-on, empowerment-based self-defense workshop. It's designed to be a positive and supportive space for women and people of all gender identities and expressions to learn self-defense and practical safety skills. These skills can increase your confidence and help you gain independence for walking through the world and doing the activities you love: running, hiking, traveling, and more!

The Badass Basics
Self-Defense Workshop!
Teaching self-defense is incredibly rewarding. I love seeing that moment when a woman realizes that she is fully capable of defending herself.
In addition to my speaking engagements with Girls Fight Back, I am a Lead Instructor with IMPACT Personal Safety and a Travel Team member with IMPACT Global where we teach full force, full contact, scenario based self-defense to women and people of all genders and ages- including kids! All classes are team taught by women lead instructors and a padded instructor who are trained in trauma-informed techniques to provide a safe and compassionate space for students to learn. Students are fully adrenalized during training in order to learn how to manage their emotional response and develop procedural memory.
