WHO ARE WE? 

KCL Self Defence Society teaches mental and physical self-defence abilities open to people of ALL levels and capabilities.

Assault prevention is a skill we think everyone should learn, especially in a big city like London. The society is structured in the following way:   

- Weekly training classes with practical tips to defend yourself in any situation regardless of strength level (when walking around the city, going out, when faced with a compromising situation). Our trainer is a professional instructor from Krav Maga Global/London. 

- Talks with inspiring guest speakers aim to spark conversations and educate around the topic.

- You will learn how to avoid compromising situations, defend yourself if necessary, and support a friend who has experienced some type of assault.  

To access our training sessions you must buy either a Class Pass (£50) which covers you for the whole term and lets you access 7 x 1hour lessons  OR buy a ticket for each week's lesson separately via the Weekly pay as you go tickets (£8). 

WHEN and WHERE are our lessons? 

Our classes take place EVERY THURSDAY 6-7pm in Activity Room F, on the 8th floor of Bush House (South East Wing), Strand, London WC2R 1AE
