Santa Monica Police Department To Offer Free Community Self Defense Classes:

The Santa Monica Police Department is collaborating with Krav Maga Worldwide to offer two free Community Self Defense Classes in September to anyone who lives, works, or goes to school in Santa Monica.

This is a great chance for any adult who has concerns about personal safety to learn techniques which could help them if they ever are in a vulnerable position.

The free two-hour class will be taught by a certified Krav Maga Instructor and a Santa Monica Police Officer from our Defensive Tactics Unit.

The class will be offered on Saturday, Sept. 6 and Saturday, Sept. 20 at the West LA Krav Maga facility at 11400 W. Olympic Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90064.

Reservations are mandatory, class size is limited: communityoutreach@kravmaga.com.
