Islamabad Police Introduces Self-Defense Classes for Males and Females

Islamabad Police has announced a self-defense course for male and female citizens of the capital in an attempt to equip them with defensive combat skills.

Self-defense is an important tool in developing an individual’s response when he/she encounters a threatening situation. It conditions the mind to defend oneself rather than cowering and fleeing.
