1933 Women's Self Defense

This video, purportedly from 1933, shows May Whitley demonstrating self defense techniques which we still use today. Ms. Whitley demonstrates the techniques with ease and a smile on her face, much to the chagrin of her attacker. With deft, she shows the ladies how makeup can be instantly freshened after decimating an attacker.

Guys, urge the ladies in your life to get trained and sign them up for classes. Ladies, join us at Wolverine Self Defense for your training in Israeli Krav Maga, so that you too can defend yourself in our increasingly violent 21st century, much like Ms. Whitley did in the early 20th century.

See our Classes page for the latest training schedule.

Stay safe out there.
