AVF- Self Defence For Women And Girls

Self defence is what we do to make our lives safer on a daily basis, consisting of a variety of strategies which can be applied to situations in which we feel intimidated or threatened. Attitude, Voice, Fist (AVF) are a group of self defence trainers based in Brighton, UK. We have developed our skills working mostly with women and girls, from the principle that no one has to accept unwanted violations of their boundaries.

We teach a range of physical and non-physical techniques from this premise. They include personal safety awareness, assertiveness skills, shouting, body language and simple, effective fighting skills. We encourage participants to find and explore their own strengths and resources. The classes aim to increase women’s confidence and decrease their fear of attack, whilst giving them more choices in dealing with dangerous or intimidating situations.
