From the website:
Healthworks Fitness Centers for Women can no longer stand by as women in the Boston area fall victim to acts of violence. We continue to be deeply troubled by the horrific murder of valued Healthworks member Amy Lord on July 23rd, and by other recent acts of violence against women in the greater Boston area. As one of the largest communities of women in the city, we believe it is our duty to empower women by providing training and resources to learn how to protect against violence.
Throughout September and October we will be launching a personal safety initiative for women throughout the Boston area that will include a series of 19 complimentary self-defense training sessions.
In partnership with the Boston Centers for Youth & Families, the Boston Police Department, the Brookline Police Department, Healthworks Community Fitness and IMPACT, a unique personal safety and self-defense curriculum, these complimentary 90 minute training sessions will be open to all women in the area.
