The Women’s Self-Defence Club (WSDC) is committed to cultivating a supportive community where self-identifying women students can come together to learn essential, yet beginner friendly, self-defence training. Through a variety of WSDC initiatives, like community building hangouts, and martial arts field trips, WSDC aims to promote empowerment and belonging for all women students on the University of Toronto campus. WSDC strives to not only enhance physical technique and skill, but we are also dedicated to enhancing mental resilience, boosting confidence, and personal growth within a supportive, all-women network. WSDC sessions will take place on a weekly basis with 2-hour long seminars. Find us on Instagram @uoftwsdc for further information!
