Self Defense

Our goal is to empower individuals to take responsibility for their safety and well-being. 

Post-COVID, (dates TBD) we will be offering 2-hour introductory courses and 2-day (24hr) intensive self-defense courses based off the Model Mugging format.  More information in the following link:  www.modelmugging.org. 

This training is hands-on, full contact (on the instructor) and geared specifically towards all aspects of self-defense against domestic and sexual assault with both known and unknown assailants.  Setting boundaries, verbal confrontations, physical confrontations, and incident aftercare are just a few aspects covered.

If you have any questions about the class, please contact Outreach Officer Mikio McCulloch at mmcculloch@ucdavis.edu

We hope to have potential class dates posted for the 2021 year. Campus community members can schedule a training session by emailing our coordinator Myra Abshire at mabshire@ucdavis.edu.
