Santa Monica Police To Hold Free Community Self-Defense Class This Saturday:

The Santa Monica Police Department is collaborating with Krav Maga Worldwide to offer a free Community Self-Defense Class this Saturday, Oct. 24 to adults who live, work, or attend school in Santa Monica.

Due to the overwhelming response for the previous two classes held this past September and early October, this class was added and will be the third and final class for 2015. (Limit one class per person.)

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 p.m. – 5 p.m.) will be taught by Santa Monica Police Officers from our Defensive Tactics Unit. Please wear athletic clothing and shoes.

The class will be offered this Saturday, Oct. 24, 2015, at the West LA Krav Maga facility at 11400 Olympic Blvd., Ste. #100, Los Angeles, CA.  

Advance reservations are mandatory; class size is limited – register now!

RSVP to: communityoutreach@kravmaga.com

Call WLA Krav Maga at (310) 477-9977 or SMPD Community Affairs at (310) 458-8474 with any questions.

For more information about our community e-mail subscriber list, contact us by e-mail: community.affairs@smgov.net or, by telephone at (310) 458-8474.
