Kim Rivers

"My goal is to become certified as a self-defense instructor. NWMAF has a good reputation for this process and I know that what is required will not just give me commendable credentials, but will offer me a true process for defining, and refining my concepts of women’s self-defense. I hope in turn for all that I gain I will also be able to offer my experience and understanding of what it means to approach martial arts and self-defense with a disability, both as a student and as an instructor."
