About Us

As women living in South Africa, it's extremely important that we are able to defend ourselves against violent crime. Just look at the statistics, they will frighten you and sadly each and every one of us knows at least 1 person that has been affected by violent crimes.

 

We at Fem Defence are dedicated to offering self defence classes that are purely based on being able to defend yourself and get away from your attacker. The majority of self defence classes are based heavily on martial arts and run by men. Most of us women are not interested in becoming the next Bruce Lee or Chuck Norris, we want to feel comfortable and to learn easy non-complicated moves to be able to defend ourselves in real life situations.

 

Our program has been developed for women and is trained by women. Our classes are based on real life scenarios, guidance and advice. We have analysed how, when and where most women are attacked and in doing so our program is easy to learn and practical. Our classes are filled with fun, fitness and most importantly learning how you can best defend yourself in most situations.
