Wendo (Empowerment and self-defense for girls and women)

Wendo is a training of empowerment and self-defense for girls and women. It can help to get through uncomfortable situations.

This is what we practice in the training:

• to get in contact with your emotions and feel your own boundaries
• to set your own boundaries
• to handle uncomfortable and threatening situations and get through them, find alternatives and to not give up quickly
• to use posture, expression and voice to be clear
• to express ones NO
• to ask for help when needed
• to (re)discover and feel your own strength
• to use easy techniques of self-defense

This will also be part of the training: moving our bodies, having fun and relaxing.

Self-confidence and knowing one’s own strength can contribute to the courage to defend oneself against violence.
