#GirlsFightBack - College, K-12, Private groups, Advocates, Conferences, & More

"The Girls Fight Back seminar is designed to be a safe space for #women, #femme, and #girls including #cis, #trans, #nonbinary, and #GenderNonConforming individuals, to learn about verbal and physical #SelfDefense strategies. This program is great for colleges, sororities, high schools and other all women+ groups who want to learn skills to be their own best protector. We combine core values, a fun and empowering attitude, and the best safety and self-defense methods available. You are worth fighting for!"

​
The program is 75 minutes + Q&A and includes these key components:

- Using your intuition

- Foundations of safety

- Recognizing tools of manipulation

- How to be an active bystander and a supportive ally

- The definition of consent

- How to support a survivor

- How to set boundaries that work for you

- Verbal de-escalation skills [NOT my strong point]

- The basics of physical self-defense in our Badass Basics

- Plus a review of improvised weapons, ground fighting, and how to sign up for a full-contact adrenaline based self-defense course near you!

Programs available In Person, Virtually, or Hybrid [I saw that there are virtual one-on-one sessions for $99. There also could be programs in your area. If you can't afford a session, there are some good resources on the website.]

The lovely folks at Safe Gigs For Women are fundraising so they can get out and talk to people at gigs and festivals. If you've got some spare dosh, think about buying a t-shirt to help them out.

Excellente vidéo sur le harcèlement quotidien que subissent les femmes dans la société japonaise.
Trop souvent ces agresseurs s'en sortent facilement car ici on ne s'occupe pas des affaires des autres.
Il faut changer les mentalités !
