Lenox Police Chief Jon Huggins reports the Lenox Police Department will be offering Women’s Self Defense Classes, beginning next week. The classes will take place Oct. 16th, 23rd and 30th, in the wrestling room at the Lenox High School . The classes will begin at 7:00 PM and last 1-1/2 hours each.

The classes are designed to give women of all ages basic defense skills. Participants must be at least 18 years of age. While the classes will involve physical activity, they are still being designed for a variety of physical skills and conditions. Participants will be required to sign a liability waiver prior to participating.

Participants should plan on attending all three nights of classes. In order to ensure we are able to maximize the effectiveness of these classes, group size will be limited. Contact Chief Jon Huggins at 641-333-2929 to reserve your spot now. There is no charge.
