Warrior Sisters
Donation protected
Warrior Sisters is a women led non-profit organization dedicated to training women and girls in reality based self-defense skills. We offer FREE public trainings as well as paid private workshops held in women only spaces. Our trainings cover a wide range of verbal and physical defense skills. Currently, violence against women is a worldwide epidemic.
One in three women will be sexually assaulted in her lifetime.
One in four will be physically assaulted.
One in five will be raped.
Warrior Sisters aims to combat this reality by arming women with the skills they need to defend themselves.
Your donations go directly towards helping women to learn these life-saving skills.
$210 will provide space rental for our seven week public training and ensures that 10 women will receive this training for free.
$100 pays for one body shield. These shields are necessary for the women to practice kicks such as the thrust or roundhouse. We need two body shields.
$50 pays for one pair of focus mitts. Focus mitts are used to practice punches, elbow strikes and eye gouges. We need two pairs of focus mitts.
$15 pays for one pair of protective gloves. Some of the women who attend are elderly or have issues with their hands, without gloves they could not practice
repetitively. Repetitive practice is vitally important as it builds the muscle memory necessary to use these skills at a moments notice.
Without this equipment we could not do the work that we do. Having pads to hit makes learning self-defense skills much more impactful and helps to build confidence. The women are able to see how powerful they are and thus believe that they can defend themselves should the need arise.
