A free Community Self-Defense Class will be held for adults who live

The Santa Monica Police Department is collaborating with Krav Maga Worldwide to offer a free Community Self-Defense Class to adults who live, work, or attend school in Santa Monica.

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

Participants 16-18 years of age must have a signed consent from a parent or guardian.

The free 2-hour class (3 pm to 5 pm) will be taught by Santa Monica Police Officers from our Defensive Tactics Unit.

The class will be offered on Saturday, Sept. 12, 2015, and on Saturday, Oct. 3, 2015, at the West LA Krav Maga facility. Limit one seminar per person.

Advance reservations are mandatory; class size is limited.

RSVP to communityoutreach@kravmaga.com
