Sandalwood Members Teach Co-ed Self-defence At Local High School

In early June, Ms. Watson and Mr. Labossiere jointly taught two self-defence classes to a co-ed group of students at Spectrum Community School.

After discussing the differences between men’s and women’s self-defence, they taught a variety of verbal and physical strategies for defence in different situations.  For some activities, they worked with the whole group together and at other times split the group into boys and girls and worked on gender-specific issues. 

Comments received after class were universally, “This was really fun,” and “I could use these skills in the future.”
