SUMMARY:Webinar – Empowerment Self-Defense: What Makes It Different and How We Can Use It
DESCRIPTION:Empowerment Self-Defense: What Makes It Different and How We Can Use It\nWITH: Dr. Amanda Allen, PhD, Education & Outreach Supervisor, Sexual Violence Resource Center of the Bluegrass\nWHEN: Thursday, January 8, 2pm-3:30pm ET/1pm-2:30pm CT\nWHO: Anyone who works with survivors\nWHAT: This webinar introduces a specific stream of women’s self-defense called Empowerment Self-Defense (ESD). In this time, we will talk about the early history of women’s self-defense, how it evolved through time, and how it became “Empowerment” Self-Defense. We will explore how ESD is different from other forms of women’s self-defense, including exploring research that shows this specific type of women’s self-defense can be considered a primary prevention program. We will provide tools to help the audience distinguish ESD from other self-defense programs and teach a few ESD skills that you can take with you.\n\n\nPRESENTER BIO:\nDr. Amanda Allen is the Education and Outreach Supervisor at the Sexual Violence Resource Center of the Bluegrass. She earned her Ph.D. in Intercultural Studies (with a concentration in international relief and development work) from Asbury Theological Seminary in Wilmore, KY.

Along with studying women’s self-defense as an academic topic, she is also a 3rd degree black belt in a mixed martial art called Kyuki-do and teaches Empowerment Self-Defense classes.
