Women's self-defense workshop set for Sept. 7

Urban Jungle Self Defense will host a self-defense workshop for women from 6-9 p.m. Friday, Sept. 7.    The workshop will cover basic counter-moves while demonstrating and teaching a variety of techniques and a blend of street-smart mixed martial arts designed to use setting, breaking and leverage to effectively defend against an attacker, according to a press release.   Participants will have an opportunity to experience a simulated attack and use defense knowledge to neutralize the attacker.   Each participant will receive an Urban Jungle Self Defense certificate of completion at the end of the course.   For more information, visit http://urbanjungleselfdefense.com/adult-training-self-defense-workshops.asp.   Urban Jungle Self Defense is located at 707 Yale St. in Houston.
