Sandpoint Martial Arts offering self defense classes

Sandpoint Martial Arts is offering adult self defense classes for men and women every Wednesday throughout the month of August.

The classes are designed to teach a practical, effective self-defense skill set encompassing awareness and physical and verbal de-escalation, as well as hands-on stand up and ground defense.

The classes also address the psychological and physical effects of adrenaline on the human body during a stressful encounter.

The classes cost $75 per month and are open to ages 18 and up. People under 18 will be considered if they are accompanied by an enrolled adult. The classes are free to local law enforcement and first responders. Veterans receive 10% off.
