The Muscatine Community YMCA is bringing back its popular self-defense workshops, offering women and girls an opportunity to learn practical safety techniques and awareness skills through classes taught by the Muscatine Police Department.
The free workshops are open to the public, with two sessions scheduled at the Muscatine Community YMCA, 1823 Logan St. Space is limited, and advance registration is required.
The first session is for adult women only and will be held Thursday, Nov. 12, from 6-8 p.m.
The second session is scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 14, from 3-5 p.m., for girls ages 13 and older accompanied by an adult. A parent or guardian must attend and participate alongside the teen.
Participants will learn valuable self-defense techniques and personal safety awareness in a supportive, focused environment.
There is no cost to attend either session, but an RSVP is required. To reserve a spot, call the Muscatine Community YMCA at 563-263-9996 or go online here.
