SHE RUNS Meetup: Runners Self Defense Class

Join us for a free self-defense class designed specifically for women runners, led by Battleground JKD.

Come learn practical techniques in a safe and supportive environment! 

Safety and Belonging are at the core of She Runs Grand Rapids, which is why we partnered with local experts in the community to offer this class! You’ll gain simple, effective tools to feel safer on your runs - from close-quarters strikes to situational awareness - all shared by expert instructors who care about your safety and well-being. 

We’ll kick things off with a warm welcome, followed by gentle stretching, hands-on learning, and real talk about staying safe on your run.

Come move, learn, and connect with other women in a space where you belong — and leave feeling empowered to run your miles with confidence. 

Class only available to the first 30 registered. No experience needed, all levels welcomed. 
Please know this class is led by a MALE instructor.
