Welcome to Women’s Self-Defence at Training Grounds.
Feel stronger, safer, and more confident by joining us on the mats. Think of this as your crash course in real world self-defence, minus the pressure, plus a whole lot of fun.
Whether you're flying solo or bringing a friend, our women-only self sessions are a welcoming space to learn practical skills, connect with others, and feel seriously empowered.
What to expect:
We’ll cover everything from distance control, de-escalation and trusting your intuition, to physical techniques like strike defence, escape drills, and handling grabs. We then pull it all together with our *Live Scenario Drills* which are safe, dynamic role-plays that give you a taste of pressure without the panic.
It’s not about fear. It’s about choices, awareness, and knowing what to do when it matters most.
And yes, it’s actually a lot of fun.
* Special Offers *

Training Grounds is a Martial Arts gym in St Leonards, operating for the last 10 years.
Our goal is to empower individuals through Martial Arts, by fostering physical and mental strength, discipline and respect.
Our Women's Self Defence program has been running for about 8 years, and has been developed based on extensive research and real life experiences.
Through this research we know that women who have the confidence to fight back are much more likely to get away and escape serious injury, so THIS is what we want to give you....
The belief and confidence to know you CAN fight back!
What makes our course different to the others out there?
We use traditional Martial Arts techniques that are simple & effective, and we allow you to practice your new found skills with our Live action scenario drills!
This is where you get to put the theory behind the technique to work, and practice situational drilling with our team of (very brave) coaches, who are prepared to take a few hits.
We are located in St Leonards, Sydney and we can host a dedicated event for your team or join one of our courses. We can even travel to your workspace or club.
