Self-defence is not only your right but your duty
Say no to gender-based violence (GBV).
Sensei Laurent Gaston-Bellegarde is eager to share his knowledge of self-defence with you.
He is a karate and self-defence instructor who is actively a sixth Dan in karate and an eight-time Karate World Championship medallist. Gaston-Bellegarde boasts more than 25 years of teaching experience.
Gaston-Bellegarde, married for 39 years, a father of two daughters and now two granddaughters, believes women should not tolerate the current situation of GBV in our country.
“Why should women have to wake up every morning not knowing if today is their turn, and why must women always only defend themselves? Why not fight back and teach the attacker a lesson they won’t forget?”
August is Women’s Month and Gaston-Bellegarde reminds all women that once the restriction levels have been lifted that he will resume staging self-defence courses and seminars.
He gives self-defence lessons to women only and karate lessons to all ages and genders from five years and older.
Should you be interested in joining the self-defence club or would like to have a seminar or course on self-defence, contact him on 082 494 2704.
