SheFighter is the first Self-Defense studio and program for women started in Jordan in 2012, and expanded to 35 countries.
SheFighter’s mission is not just to empower women in Self-Defense, but to also empower them mentally and psychologically.
OUR GOAL
SheFighter is raising 20,000 dollars to expand in North America and run a total of 6 courses (6 to 8 hours each course) for women and girls, focusing on Black communities, refugees and schools.
If we reach 50,000 dollars the Funding will also help us build a studio in LA as a HQ expand our operations in training of trainers, and to keep working with girls and women to reach our vision to end violence against women globally.
