A Year-End Experience of Strength, Safety & Self-Confidence
Before you give your energy to everyone else this season, take one powerful day to give back to yourself.
Join us for EmpowHer, a transformational one-day retreat designed exclusively for women — blending all three pillars of self-defense training: Prevent, Defend, and Protect with empowerment, awareness, and connection. Leave 2025 feeling grounded, confident, and ready to move through the world feeling more safe and secure.
The Day's Flow
💠 10:00–10:15 AM – Intention-Setting & Empowerment Meditation
We'll begin the day with a grounding meditation led by yogi Bridgette Shaw-Bane (Calgary, AB), joining us virtually to help you set your intentions and reconnect with your inner power.
💠 10:15–11:30 AM – Prevent
Learn to recognize risks and build everyday safety habits that reduce vulnerability. Enjoy coffee and gnoshies from Mast Coffee during this lecture and discussion portion.
💠 11:45 AM–1:45 PM – Defend
Arm yourself with practical and effective physical defense techniques for both distance and close-quarters encounters — no prior experience needed.
💠 2:00–3:00 PM – Protect
Explore non-lethal defense tools and how to use them safely and effectively while enjoying delicious bites from Tea Bar + Fusion Kitchen.
Whether you’re new to self-defense or ready to deepen your skills, EmpowHer offers a safe and supportive space to learn, move, and grow in your self-defense journey.
Close out the year feeling more grounded, capable, and empowered.
You’ll leave with practical tools, renewed confidence, and a powerful reminder that your safety — and your strength — belong to you.

Join us on Thursday evenings in March to get your empowerment on and complete the full Prevent & Defend curriculum.
You'll save some $$ (20% off individual class price) by signing up for the full series, but most importantly, you'll be making a commitment to yourself, to your safety, and to your well-being by learning these important skills that could keep you or someone you love from harm.
POWER UP with your ladies on Thursday nights and enjoy your weekend knowing you have options for keeping yourselves safer out there!
Spots are extremely limited to create a safe space & hands-on experience.
