GTF had conducted the activity of a self-defence workshop for girls belonging to tribal areas in Dahanu ashram School. The Guest Martial art Trainer was Mr Sudhir.

The trainer showed the videos of some self-defence techniques which he would be explaining on practise. There were a total of more than 30 girl participants with some faculty members for training.

After watching several videos, all the participants were taken to the lawn area where the actual workshop started. They explained kubotan and its uniqueness in the area of self-defence. The participants were provided with the keychains which would be used as a safety tool. Then the trainer explained various techniques and showed practically how to use that tool. All the participants were made to practice the techniques with another participant.

After the practical workshop, all the participants were given participation certificates. The participant had learned the new techniques of self-defence. They are also interested to attend similar kinds of workshops on a large scale to empower the skill of self –defence. We aim to conduct a similar workshop every year.
