Wing Shan&#8217;10 (Stephenie) , an experienced black belt at tae-kwon do, started her own practicum for self-defense and taught about 20 interested students. The classes took place during the weekend and taught students the basic self-defense moves for protection and safety. It is a very useful and valuable skill to know for the future!
