🥊 Women’s Self-Defence: Awareness, Confidence & Safety
Join BPW Barrie for an empowering and practical session with LeAndra Taitt-Meikle, local realtor and women’s self-defence advocate!
Learn everyday habits to stay safer, recognize and avoid potential conflict, and what to do when walking away isn’t an option. We’ll cover practical techniques for handling being grabbed, improving your chances of escape, and looking out for one another.
💪 Stay after the session for questions, open conversation, and a chance to try a few moves yourself!
Because feeling confident, knowing your worth, and looking out for each other matters.
