Led by skilled instructors Jaime Hahn and Eduardo Avallar, these classes will teach you practical self-defense techniques to boost your confidence and personal safety. The sessions are split into two classes:

• Class 1: Introduction to foundational skills, including basic defensive moves and strategies for avoiding and escaping dangerous situations.
• Class 2: A continuation that builds on the basics with more advanced tactics, ensuring you feel empowered and equipped to protect yourself in real-world scenarios.

Narcissism Defense Learning:

These sessions are designed to help you recognize and defend against narcissistic behaviors in relationships, whether personal or professional. You will learn tools to set healthy boundaries, protect your energy, and build emotional resilience.

Healing Tea and Sleep-Ready Ceremonies:

Every evening, unwind with a relaxing tea ceremony featuring a selection of healing teas such as Cayenne Pepper, Cinnamon, and Soursop. Paired with sound frequency healing, Reiki-infused teas, and gentle energy healing, these ceremonies create a tranquil space to release the day's stress and prepare for restorative sleep. This nightly ritual encourages deep relaxation and emotional balance.
