Women Who Run

Classes

We offer a variety of classes and workshops. We are back in person for some limited classes after the lifting of the COVID-19 lockdown. COVID-19 protocols are followed for all in-person classes. Virtual classes are available too. We offer women-centric self-defense classes as well as workshops on domestic violence, dating abuse, situational awareness, and healthy relationships and healthy communities. Connect with like-minded women as we work to build a safer community.
