Safe For Life: Women's Self Defence Course

NZ's leading Self-Protection, Confidence and Empowerment course for women. This course has been running for over a decade and has helped equip over 32,000 women with realistic skills to keep themselves and their loved ones safe.

Taught by Protect, NZ's leading self defence training organisation. This course is normally $199 and is being subsidised this time thanks to the amazing sponsorship of The Mortgage Supply Company!

Not only that, but 100% of the fees will be donated to our friends at RPE (Rape Prevention Education).

Every woman deserves to live a life free from unnecessary fear and worry. And that's what Protect's 1-day Safe For Life programme, which caters exclusively to the self-protection requirements of women, can give you.

Safe For Life has been designed by Protect's senior trainers and is based on research from our work with thousands of female survivors of all types of violence.

This course is led by Corrina, Suz, Phil, and several other senior Protect Trainers.

Safe For Life is the only programme endorsed by Rape Prevention Education (formerly Rape Crisis) and has helped empower thousands of women with the skills and confidence to stay safe.

This course is attended by women who are looking to ensure that they never become victims of sexual violence, assault, or any other form of violence and by survivors of past assaults looking to ensure that it never happens to them again.

Safe For Life helps to eliminate un-warranted fear and worry by instilling confidence, awareness and empowerment. This is a real-life programme open to women of all ages (14+), sizes and levels of physical ability.

Just a few of the things you will learn at Safe For Life:
- The most common manipulation techniques used by males against females to gain control over them and lure them into dangerous situations. Once you know these you will recognise them in almost every story of predatory assault you ever hear. Recognise them at their earliest point to stay safe!

- Understanding the psychology of fear and how to use it to your advantage.

- The two types of predators you could face, how they operate, and how to defend against them both.

- Ensuring your heightened awareness does not become un-necessary fear or worry, but instead confidence, self-belief and empowerment.

- The most common myths about women’s self defence dispelled so you will be prepared with the most effective, relevant, and proven strategies to protect yourself and your loved ones.

- How to de-escalate and defuse potentially violent situations.

- Highly effective physical responses which work against anyone including much larger, stronger and aggressive males in any situation, under extreme fear and pressure.

- Dealing with the post-event issues.

Taught in a highly supportive, positive and professional environment, Protect's Safe For Life is a comprehensive course that gives you all of the above and a lot more.
