possible of aggression: from attempts at theft or robbery to domestic or occasional violence.

psychological indispensable to manage panic in situations of maximum criticality.
The course is open to all, but mainly addressed to women, it does not require particular previous skills in martial arts, it will prepare its patrons to face any aggression in which distance control and the learning of incisive techniques are key elements, to an effective self-defense, which has the purpose of always knowing how to protect oneself with a civic spirit and in full compliance with Italian “laws” (self-defense).

Yesterday November 28th – at the Palaveliero headquarters in via Manzoni- San Giorgio a Cremano (Na) – Maestro Giovanni Savarese together with Maestro Giovanni Vivona had an interesting meeting.
About 50 women actively participated and remained enthusiastic and interested.
“We tried to stimulate their curiosity and give answers to their perplexities. We did not have the presumption in a few hours to teach how to defend oneself, but to at least give the awareness that one can do, one can fight, free oneself and run away for help. We run away, because in the lesson we gave the elements to free ourselves from an aggression, but not to fight with the aggressor. “(Giovanni Savarese)
