Rachel makes self-defense accessible and fun! We did 3 months of classes and it was such an empowering experience. Rachel did an amazing job teaching the building blocks then having us apply them in practical scenarios. The classes are also a great workout. I recommend her classes to any and all women!

Rachel’s class is exactly what I was looking for in self-defense, she teaches real life scenarios, what could happen, and what you should do. Rachel also teaches you how to find your voice to speak up in those scary situations and build confidence in yourself. Not to mention it’s an amazing work out each time, so you’re getting fit at the same time!
Everyone Is Affected By Violence.
Violent situations happen more often than you think. We can change these statistics by preventative practices and real-time defense skills and strategies to remain calm and controlled in the face of physical and mental harm.
One in three women globally, around 736 million, have been subjected to physical or sexual violence in their lifetimes, according to new analysis by the World Health Organization (WHO).
1 out of every 6 American women has been the victim of an attempted or completed rape in her lifetime (14.8% completed, 2.8% attempted).
