CHARTERED CLUBS
Self-Defense
Contact Fred Warman at
[email protected] with stage. Tickets for each performance will
questions.
The Self Defense (SD) Club’s primary goal
is to help our members develop:
1) A greater awareness of risks and re-
lated avoidance/escape techniques
2) Effective defensive techniques when
an encounter can’t be avoided.
Members are taught easy-to-learn, effec-
tive self-protection techniques.
– Club instructors are Sun City Texas
residents with extensive self-defense
training.
– The techniques taught are tailored to
accommodate the physical limitations
of each individual.
– Training is non-combative with no sig-
nificant physical contact.
– A portion of each class is devoted to
practice with one or more partners.
– The SD Club membership dues are $10
prior to July and $5 July-December.
– Special training is offered to residents
who are required to use a cane; a cane
can be legally taken anywhere and can
be a very effective defensive weapon.
Classes are available free of charge to
residents who face the challenges of Par-
kinson’s disease.
Classes are provided in six week sessions
and are held at the Cowan Creek Amenity
Center from 10-11 a.m. AND 11 a.m. to
noon. The next training session begins
Wednesday, March 8. Training fees are
$15 per six week course (once per week).
You must be a paid member of the Self
Defense Club to attend classes. Please re-
fer to the club’s website for more details
on training content and class schedules.
Join the club and bring a friend as a
practice partner!
