A local MMA fighter and UWW World Champion is teaching women self-defense skills next month.

Brighton's Natalie Kutzli is hosting a women’s self-defense seminar on Sunday, May 17 from 1:30-3pm. She says her goal is to have women leave the class feeling stronger, more confident, and empowered.

The seminar costs $40 per person and is taking place at 2244 Euler Road #103 in Brighton, that’s off Grand River Avenue near South Hacker Road. There, women will learn five core self-defense techniques to help escape common real-world situations.

Women are asked to text 616-551-6058 to register. Limited spots only. No experience is required.
