Self Defense Education

Northwest has created its own Self Defense Training program that offers realistic self-defense tactics and techniques. The Self Defense Training is a comprehensive, women-only course that begins with awareness, prevention, risk reduction and risk avoidance, while progressing to the basics of hands-on defense training. The Northwest Self Defense Training program is not a Martial Arts program. 

Courses are taught by officers from the University Police Department and are offered at no cost to Northwest students and employees. Contact the University Police t to arrange something specific for a group: police@nwmissouri.edu.
