Empowerment Self Defense is more than learning how to defend yourself. It is about using self-defense movements to train your nervous system how to remain calm under pressure and generate more resilience. Empowerment Self Defense combines dynamic martial arts, controlled breath work, and meditation to help you self-regulate your flight-fight-freeze response. This one-of-a-kind method is accessible, safe, and powerful! 

Empowerment Self Defense involves Tai Chi drills, active striking techniques, standing grip work, and some ground defense. This practice will enhance your physical coordination and your ability to respond in a timely and proficient manner. You won’t just learn effective martial arts techniques; you will become more aware and capable in your own body.
