Salurinn er aðgengilegur hjólastólum.
Allar konur velkomnar sem og allt trans fólk (skráning í H.Í. er ekki skilyrði).
Æfingarnar eru lokaðar sís-karlmönnum.*
(*Sís-karlmaður er karl sem var úthlutað kyninu “strákur” við fæðingu, upplifir sig sem slíkan og er sáttur við það.)
UM ÆFIGNARNAR:
Femíníska sjálfsvörnin sem verður æfð er í anda Seito Boei aðferðarinnar og felur í sér líkamlega, munnlega, sálræna og tilfinningalega sjálfsvörn.
Æfingahópurinn hittist á hverjum föstudegi.
Annan hvern föstudag hittist æfingarhópurinn í íþróttahúsinu og æfir líkamlega sjálfsvörn. Föstudagana þar á milli hittist hópurinn í stofu O-105 (Oddi) á háskólasvæðinu og æfir munnlega, sálræna og tilfinningalega sjálfsvörn.
AÐGENGI Í O-105:
Í dyrunum er 3cm kantur. Dyrnar eru 84cm á breidd.
148m eru á næsta aðgengilega klósett í Gimli byggingu. Það er á sömu hæð og gott aðgengi þangað fyrir utan að það er leiðinlega langt.
AÐGENGI Í ÍÞRÓTTAHÚSI:
Enginn klefi fyrir einstaklinga sem vilja frekar nota nonbinary búningsklefa/sturtur. Þó eru ókynjamerkt klósett á efri hæðinni, en þangað er engin lyfta, einungis stigi.
Íþróttasalurinn sjálfur er á jarðhæð.
UM FEMÍNÍSKA SJÁLFSVÖRN:
Femínísk sjálfsvörn sker sig frá ‘venjulegum’ námskeiðum í sjálfsvörn að því leyti að hún fylgir ákveðnum femínískum gildum og markmið hennar mótast út frá þeim. Meðal markmiða femínískrar sjálfsvarnar er að:
– Hugsa gagnrýnt um og afbyggja félagsmótun kyns og stigveldi þess
-Efla samstöðu og styðja við þolendur/varnarfólk sem vilja byrja eða halda áfram með bataferli.
– Auka þekkingu á mismunandi birtingarmyndum ofbeldis, m.a. til að auðveldara sé að koma auga á það, tala um það og berjast gegn því.
-Þróa einstaklingsbundnar og hópatengdar aðferðir sem eru skilvirkar í að koma í veg fyrir ofbeldi.
Áhugasöm eru hvött til að koma með boxhanska og púða/padda á líkamlegu æfingarnar. En það er ekki skilyrði.

ABOUT THE TRAININGS:

SOME GOALS OF THESE FEMINIST SELF-DEFENSE TRAININGS:
Provide each other with more options to choose from when using self-defense, by sharing a diverse range of strategies successfully used by people in real life situations.
Support victims/survivors/defenders to overcome isolation after assault and begin to heal
Expand our notions of what “successful self-defense” is and help each other appreciate all of the ways we keep ourselves safe.
Keep braking the stigma + myths around sexual and gender based assault/abuse so that we can talk about it, take action, and overcome it.
Those interested are encouraged to bring along pads and boxing gloves to the physical trainings. But it is not an obligation.
