Elmhurst Park District Offers Free Practical Self-Defense Workshop

Submitted by the Elmhurst Park District.

Build your confidence and street awareness with a free practical self-defense workshop!

Join the park district at Wagner Community Center on Wednesday, Sept. 16, 6-7:30 p.m. to learn simple, effective techniques against the most common unarmed attacks, as well as how to defend yourself with a stick or cane. Movements will be low-impact and designed for adults and seniors who are new to self-defense.

Those with physical limitations will receive individual instruction on alternate self-defense options. The instructor is a practicing attorney with over 20 years’ experience in Kenpo Karate, Krav Maga and Escrima, and will also address the legal ramifications of using self-defense.
