Self Defense for Youth & Adults class to be offered at NICC Waukon Center

Northeast Iowa Community College (NICC) Business and Community Solutions is offering Practical Self Defense for Youth & Adults Wednesday, September 7 from 3:45-4:45 p.m. for the youth class and from 5:30-7 p.m. for the adult class at the NICC Waukon Center, located at 1220 3rd Avenue NW.

The old saying that one can never be too careful is as true as ever. No one wants to be a victim. Yet, unfortunately, there are too many ways to become one unless people thoughtfully prepare themselves to be on the defense. Whether a man, woman, college student or teenager, this class has something to offer everyone.

Along with some effective hands-on physical techniques, the presenter will talk about awareness of threats as varied as unfamiliar environments, Internet scams, parking lot crime and violent assault. Being prepared is the best defense.

The deadline for paid registration is August 31. To register online, visit www.nicc.edu/waukon or call NICC Waukon Center at 844-642-2338, ext. 6700.
