Bayside Council has partnered with KYUP! to present four free self-defence workshop for mums and daughters at the Arncliffe Youth Centre in March 2025.
The workshops are presented by martial artist and anti-violence Mel Thomas who shares safety tips and simple self-defence techniques any woman and girl can use, no matter their size or skill level.
These safe, hands-on workshops focus on setting boundaries and responding to conflict using real-life scenarios like navigating public transport, social events and everyday situations.
Participants will learn how to replace fear with confidence, trust their instincts to make smart choices, use the power of their voice to defuse dangerous situations, get away from a situation that doesn't feel right, fight back when needed, and break the cycle of violence.
The Mums and Daughters Self-Defence Workshops will be held at the Arncliffe Youth Centre in Arncliffe on Tuesday 4, 11, 18 and 25 March 2025.
The Arncliffe Youth Centre is located at 9 Townsend Lane, Arncliffe.
