The workshop

Fit to Fight

Ninety minutes. Six parts. You leave with a plan you can use tonight — not a belt, and not a curriculum you'll forget by Tuesday.

What happens in the room

  1. The talk

    Twenty minutes on the pen and the sword — why the written record is the weapon you're allowed to carry everywhere, and how to use it.

  2. Awareness and avoidance

    How attention actually works under pressure, what changes when you're tired or distracted, and the small habits that close most gaps before anything starts.

  3. Boundaries out loud

    The words. Practised, not theorised — because the first time you say them shouldn't be the time it counts.

  4. Hands on

    Grip breaks, short strikes, creating distance, moving to an exit. Drilled for recall under stress rather than technical perfection.

  5. Taking action

    Afterward matters as much as during. Reporting, documenting, who to tell and in what order.

  6. The plan

    You write down your own decisions before you leave. Boundaries, rules, the person you call.

How we run the room

We assume there are survivors in every room, because there usually are.

  • Every physical drill is opt-in. Sitting one out is a normal thing to do and nobody is asked why.
  • No one is singled out, put on the spot, or asked to share anything personal in front of the group.
  • Nobody is asked to relive anything. We work forward, not backward.
  • The presenter is available for a quiet word after the session.

What to bring

  • Clothes you can move in and flat shoes, or bare feet on the mats.
  • Water.
  • A notebook and pen — or use the one we hand out.

A signed waiver is required before participating in the physical portion. You'll receive it by email ahead of the session, and spares are available at the door.

Private bookings

Ladies, turn your birthday celebration into an empowerment party.

FIT TO FIGHT

Dinner and drinks are lovely. But you've done that. This year, book the dojo, bring the women you love, and spend ninety minutes learning something that actually changes how you walk through the world.

It's a workshop and a party at the same time. Everyone arrives in clothes they can move in, nobody needs any experience, and by the end the whole group knows how to break a grip, hold a boundary out loud, and get to the door. Then you go to dinner — and you go as a room full of women who just did that together.

Birthdays

Thirty, forty, fifty, sixty. Any birthday that deserves more than a cake. The birthday girl trains first and the group follows.

Bachelorette & bridal

The night before the dress. Daytime, sober, and far more memorable than another spa afternoon. Partners welcome at the end for the photo.

Mothers & daughters

Teens and up. The talk is shaped for mixed ages and the drills are paired so family trains with family.

Milestones

A divorce, a graduation, a new job, a move to the city. The things that mark a before and an after. Mark it by learning to protect the after.

Girls' night & teams

Book clubs, running crews, sports teams, the group chat. Six to twenty women, any reason or none.

Gift it

A booking for someone else — a daughter leaving for school, a sister starting over, a friend who's been through something. We'll coordinate the surprise.

How it works

  • Ninety minutes in the dojo — the full Fit to Fight workshop, shaped around your group.
  • Six to twenty women. Smaller feels private; larger feels like an event. Both work.
  • You bring the people. We bring everything else: instruction, mats, waivers, a notebook and pen for every guest.
  • The guest of honour gets the room. She chooses the music, trains first, and gets her own moment at the end.
  • Add-ons: cake and a toast on the mats afterward, a group photo in gis, or a take-home personal safety plan for every guest.
  • Private or at your venue. The dojo in Milton is home base. For a backyard or a rented hall anywhere in the GTA, we come to you.

Book an empowerment party

Every drill is opt-in, nobody is singled out, and the night is about what you can do — not what might happen. Alcohol is for afterward, not during.
