50 – Women's Self-Defense & Horizontal Violence w/ Warrior Sisters
from Southpaw · host Southpaw
Sam had the opportunity to speak with two members of Warrior Sisters, a nonprofit for empowerment-based, women-centered self-defense education. They discussed martial arts vs. self-defense, removing hierarchy from martial techniques, stereotypes of what self-defense is vs. evidence-based reality, creating an inclusive space, and how self-defense isn't always physical but about space, power dynamics, and horizontal violence. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in self-defense (especially those interested in starting their own nonprofit program), martial arts, or those looking for practical concepts during these dangerous and trying times.
