Bay Area Self-Defense Seminars
We travel to you. We just need your company to have a little bit of space for us to host it. We also host small groups.
90 MIN
SELF-DEFENSE SEMINAR
LIMITED SPOTS
MARCH 29TH 5PM - 6.30PM
VALA Self Defense is more than a class — it’s a shift in mindset.
In 90 minutes, we cover practical tools, real-world scenarios, and the most important skill of all: awareness.
You don’t leave thinking you “know everything.”
You leave understanding what’s possible — and realizing you’re capable of much more than you thought.
This is where confidence starts.
Wear leggings and a t-shirt for comfort. Address: 159 Molimo Drive
We look forward to working with you!
We don’t only teach you effective tools, we also design the experience to be welcoming and fun!
