Protection and fitness will be the focus of a series of self-defense classes slated in Bridgeland this summer. The classes are open to the public.
Classes are scheduled for 7-8:30 p.m. Wednesday, June 9; 2-3:30 p.m. Saturday, June 26; 7-8:30 p.m. Wednesday, July 7; 2-3:30 p.m. Saturday, July 17; 7-8:30 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 4; and 2-3:30 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 14. Classes will be held at the community’s Lakeland Activity Center, 16902 Bridgeland Landing.
Key points of the class include how to fight more than one person and win, how to increase your chances of surviving a home invasion or carjacking, the most effective way to get a 250-pound person off of you in seconds and the additional weight loss and strength-building benefits of self defense.
Cost for a single class is $40 per resident or $55 per non-resident. Residents can register for multiple classes at a reduced rate: $70 for two classes; $110, three classes; $150, four classes; $190, five classes; and $210 for six classes.
Teaching the classes is Terry Tom, a certified self-defense instructor who has 15 years of experience in the fitness and martial arts field. Tom specializes in counter-assault for women, Jeet Kune Do concepts, escrima, kickboxing, Muay Thai, wrestling, jiu-jitsu boxing and Wing Chun Kung Fu.
The self-defense classes are just part of several seminars and events the Bridgeland community is opening to the public this summer. For a full list — which includes a summer drama camp, soccer camps and more — visit www.bridgelandlife.com or www.bridgeland.com/events/calendar.
