Dance Exchange

Event: Free Adult Self-Defense Intro Class 
When:&nbsp;Sunday, 1:30–3:00 p.m. 
Where: Dance Exchange, Studio 3, Takoma Park 
Who: Adults (18+)
Residents of Takoma Park, Maryland, are invited to attend a free introductory self-defense class for adults. Maryland Systema offers practical training for people who want to improve their awareness, movement, balance, and ability to respond under pressure.
This Takoma Park self-defense class focuses on realistic adult training rather than sport, competition, or memorized routines. Participants will receive an introduction to Maryland Systema’s approach to self-protection through breathing, relaxation, posture, structure, and natural movement.
The class includes instructor-led exercises and controlled contact. Training begins gradually so participants can learn how balance, distance, positioning, and decision-making affect personal safety.
No previous martial arts or self-defense experience is required. The class is designed for adult beginners and people who may feel unsure about joining a traditional martial arts school. There is no sparring, no competition, and no requirement to work beyond your comfort level.
This free introductory class gives Takoma Park residents an opportunity to experience Maryland Systema firsthand before deciding whether to attend future classes. There is no contract or obligation to continue.
Wear comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely. Class size is limited.
Before attending, text Maryland Systema at 301-326-9146 to confirm your attendance. Classes are occasionally canceled because of scheduling changes.
