The Yawara Stick

This dynamic workshop is open to everyone including non-martial artists and is recommended for anyone looking for a weekend self-defense workshop. The Yawara stick is simply a six inch acrylic rod keychain that can provide you with extra options when defending yourself. Police and security often use the Yawara to create pain compliance from uncooperative subjects. It makes an amazing third party intervention tool when you are trying to intervene in a confrontation between two other people.

The seminar is just $30 and yawara sticks are available for $10 at the seminar (it is not necessary to purchase sticks as loners will be available).

The cost is $30 per person.
