WOMEN'S RECREATION
| Exploring Challenges through Experiential Learning

Our Women’s Recreation programs will give you a sense of positive empowerment, strengthen your sense of self and develop your awareness for the greater world around you. We believe that taking women outside their comfort zone while retaining a sense of personal safety and security can create an environment that can cause true change in a woman’s life. Join our instructor, Gerry Ebalaroza-Tunnell, for one of these great courses.

Strength, Courage & Wisdom
Are you looking for your opportunity to gain self defense skills, confidence, and peace of mind? This course is designed for those who can’t devote their lives to martial arts but need to protect themselves in a changing world. The emphasis is on strategy, not brute strength; intelligence, not muscle; defense, not aggression.  You will learn how to properly defend and survive against close contact attacks by utilizing simple-to-learn and simple-to-execute techniques.  Experienced instructor, Gerry Ebalaroza-Tunnell is a certified Wing Chun Instructor and is acknowledged as the only female instructor in her lineage of Kung Fu. She has 25 years of martial arts and self defense training and has been teaching self defense to women in the Pacific Northwest for the past seven years.
