The course is designed to give you the opportunity to learn and practise how to deal confidently with (potentially) dangerous situations in a safe atmosphere. In addition to general information on violence prevention and violence in partnerships and close relationships, you will learn the first physical defense techniques from Krav Maga. We will look at the role that communication and the ability to set boundaries play in everyday life and how important this knowledge is in conflict situations. But what are techniques if you don't have specific situations? To round off the course, we will discuss some example situations at the end to apply and consolidate what we have learned.

What can I do if I myself or someone I know has experienced violence? What contact points are there in Landau and at the university? We will address these and similar questions and discuss options for possible aftercare following violent situations.

If you have already experienced violence or assaultive situations and are unsure whether the course content is suitable for you, you are welcome to contact us beforehand. The course will also be accompanied by two students who have completed training in psychological first aid and are available to talk to and support you.

Target group: The course is aimed exclusively at female RPTU students. It is suitable for both beginners and advanced students. No previous knowledge is required.

What do you need to bring? Please come to the course well equipped with sportswear (including sneakers!) and something to drink. You are welcome to bring a snack for the breaks.
