What if...
...someone attacks me? Will I freeze?
...my child is bullied or attacked?
...I think someone is a threat, but I'm not sure?
...I need to defend myself but physical force is inappropriate?
“Empowerment has taken on a real, tangible meaning for me. I was surprised by how deeply the course reached me. I was expecting to come out of it with a few good karate moves but instead came out feeling more like "ME" than I've ever felt and stronger than I've ever known I was.”

self-defense class in action
Watch a student in action!
You will learn how to minimize the "freeze response", assess potential threats, verbally de-escalate situations before they become physical, and to defend yourself if you are attacked.
  • increase your ability to stay safe
  • project self-confidence
  • use your voice effectively
  • trust your instincts

Good self-defense goes beyond physical fighting.
Prepare Canada's 20-hour basics class will help you identify emotional and social factors that can put you at risk, and take action before violence occurs.
The way we teach the class enables you to learn the physical techniques in a very short period of time— and to remember them for the rest of your life.

Prepare Canada teaches the IMPACT style of self defense. We use realistic scenarios that allow you to practice with the adrenaline surge that is present in stressful situations so that even if your mind freezes, your body knows what to do.

Female instructors lead the class. They demonstrate each technique and are by your side as a supportive coach through each of the scenarios to ensure your physical and emotional safety.

Male instructors act as mock assailants. They are heavily padded so you can practice full-power on a real target without fear of harming yourself or the teacher.

Our teaching teams give you individualized attention to help you feel safer, stronger, and more in control than you may have believed possible.

If you are ready to take charge of your safety, here are some ways to get started:
