For Immediate Release
FREE SELF DEFENSE CLASSES TO SUPPORT SEX ASSUALT AWARENESS MONTH
According to the U.S. Department of Justice, more than 2.5 million women experience violence annually and every 90 seconds a woman is raped in America. To combat this statistic and support Sex Assault Awareness Month and Colorado Krav Maga is hosting FREE self-defense seminars every Saturday during the month of April.
“Our goal is to train as many women in Colorado as we can on some of the basics of self-defense. Real self-defense, no theoretical magic fluff here. Just straight forward self-defense.” Said James Hiromasa, co-owner of Colorado Krav Maga.
1 out of 6 Women will be a victim of attempted or completed rape in their lifetime. Pauline B. Bart, Ph.D. and Patricia H. O’Brien of St. Xavier College says “Women who responded to attackers with anger and rage—who yelled, screamed, tried to flee, or physically resisted—were less likely to be raped than women who froze in panic and submitted.”
Colorado Krav Maga is really, really good at one thing…Self Defense. They are taking action on the front lines, where it’s personal. With the #metoo movement and wide range of women coming forward from all areas of our communities, they believe in giving women a voice and the power to fight back and not be one of the statistics.

April 7th, 5200 Broadway, Denver
