The recent attacks on the API community in San Francisco and throughout the country, have left many of our residents and community stakeholder fearful and deeply concerned about public safety in their own community. SOMA Pilipinas and Kapwa Garden are working in partnership to provide culturally competent martial arts/self-defense classes for community members to learn some basic tactics to keep themselves safe. In addition to learning self-defense skills, we believe that martial arts are a useful practice that helps alleviate some of the collective anxiety, stress, and traumas that these racial attacks have caused. Lastly, we hope this short series of classes will help spark individuals’ interest in making a more long-term investment into the martial arts.

Workshop Description: This workshop is on the fundamentals of self-defense with rhythm, movement, and energy.
