Simple and Proven Techniques
Our Women's Self Defense Workshops have been featured on NBC, Univision & the LA Times taught by Mr. Gomez directly. Safety and survival in today's world requires you to know self defense. There are various types of assaults and our women's self defense workshop gives you the best chance of survival by utilizing simple, effective and proven self-defense tactics and techniques.
The goal of our workshops is to not only teach things on a physical level, but to also teach women how to think and identify the different stages of assault.
We want women to know that they’re not alone. We want them to know that YES, they can make a difference, YES, they can fight back and NO, size and strength does NOT matter. No, you DON’T have to be a victim. You are capable of doing MUCH MUCH more than you think you can. You just have to realize you can. Our goal is to empower you and to build that confidence so that you don’t feel like you have to backdown and stand for violence. Whether it’s sexual assault, domenstic violence, robbery, etc, we have tons of information to arm you with. The best self-defense is sometimes not just physical self-defense, it’s awareness. It’s the ability to make the right decisions in event of an unfortunate situation.
In our sessions, you'll learn:
- Practical Self-Defense - practical and effective self-defense techniques and tips.
- Increased Awareness - what to do in dangerous situations both physically and emotionally.
- Understanding how to set boundaries
- Effective Escape Techniques - how to get away quickly.
- Crime Prevention - how to minimize the chance you will be attacked.
- Using Your Body as Your Weapon - give yourself a fighting chance.
- Understanding the use of self defense weapons.
Class is even better when you have your friends and relatives attend. Ask them to attend as well.
Are you part of a group of women? We can hold a private session for your group.
All techniques are taught by experienced instructors in a non-threatening, non-intimidating atmosphere. This session does not require a lot of strength and all techniques are taught in a fun and safe atmosphere. Participants do not need to be in top physical condition or well coordinated.
This is a women's self defense class, not a martial arts class. Women are also encouraged to bring their significant other or male friends. They can assist you by being your partner. We've had great success with participants doing that.
We also have a FREE Online Women's Self Defense Website created by Mr. Gomez. Learn how to predict, identify and avoid violence before it occurs.

Read some testimonials from past participants:
“On behalf of my sister and I, thank you so much for putting this workshop together. We definitely learned a lot; there are so many differences between weapons, for example. I have only attended one self-defense class (when I worked for County of Riverside as a social worker) and it did not entail all these details. We truly look forward to another workshop in the future. We are thinking of bringing our other sister as well as our mother. I definitely recommend it to everyone else out there who didn’t have a chance to join today. I don’t recall a time when my younger sister and I ever had a chance to roughhouse the way we did today. LOL Definitely a “sister date” to remember. We had so much fun! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and passion with us.. Most importantly, for sharing your WHY.” – Linda Ramona
“Great class today! Again, thank you Maurice and to the rest of the instructors who made us all attendees feel stronger and more confident in ourselves, and specially for empowering women like me. You were all amazing! Til next time!” – Cindy
“This was my first self-defense class I have ever done and it was really great to have it be hands-on and informative. Maurice and his team gave a lot of details about the different techniques. They did a good job in role playing the techniques so we could all understand and practice them ourselves. For a 3 hour class, I thought it was exceptional. Usually, these classes can range for at least $75. I will definitely recommend it to my friends and family. I look forward to participating in upcoming classes as practice is how I will gain my confidence and perfect my self-defense skills if I would ever be in this kind of danger. Although Maurice does not charge a large fee for his teachings, I guarantee you will leave satisfied!” -Monica Nunez
