Free self-defense course to be offered at Sentou Dojo

A free self-defense course will start this Friday, Sept. 18th. It is for both adults and children. What a great idea. Sentou Dojo is offering the class as a community service. It will incorporate the Bully Buster system, and will teach various martial arts techniques.

If you miss the first class, do not worry. You can go to the next one, because they have a review in every class.

Find out more at The Daily News by reading their article.

More from The Daily News:

"Classes are from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. the first and third Friday of each month, starting this Friday. Sentou Dojo is at 112 Nugent St. Children under the age of 18 must have a parent or guardian permission slip to attend the classes."
