Flyers Self Defense Workshop
May 4 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm

The Flyers are excited to offer a private workshop on Self Defense led by Diane Klein's husband, Dave Valesquez who has a 5th degree Black Belt in GoJuTe/Japanese style Karate and has spent over 35 years with NYC Parks & Recreation implementing Karate programs for children and adults. We are so honored to have him share his expertise in self defense tactics!
This course will consist of discussion and practice such as, increasing awareness of your surroundings, defining your space, striking with hands and arms, kicking with feet and legs, getting to the ground safely, avoiding blows and more! 🙂 You can participate by simply observing or by practicing some of the moves with fellow participants.
Come prepared by wearing comfortable clothes and if you have a floor/yoga mat, please bring it because we will not have enough for everyone. Thank you!
We will provide water and light snacks for those in need of a little extra energy. After the session, we plan on meeting up at City Winery Bistro/Bar located at Pier 57.
