  Our team completed a workshop with the Underground Self-Defense team. We had a great time, and learned so much. Trisha was a wonderful instructor. A wonderful experience that we all appreciate so much.

  Took the 4 week women's SAFE course and WOW! I cannot recommend this class enough. Not only did we practice and learn easy and effective moves, we also spent a large portion of the time discussing how to set boundaries and avoid getting into trouble by using our gut, words, and body language. As someone very sensitive to the heaviness and importance of the class, I can definitely attest that Trisha and the Villari family are doing it right!! 6/5 stars.

  My 11 year old and her friends took a girl empowerment workshop. The girl empowerment public class that is offered wasn't going to work at the particular day and time with our schedule, so Trisha worked with me to set up a private workshop- which I really appreciated. The class was really great. The girls did a group discussion with the instructor at the beginning, and then went on to learn some self defense moves that they were able to practice at the end of class. I highly recommend Villari's to any parent looking for a self defense class for their child.

  My kids love this place and so do I!! Big fan of the come-as-you-are atmosphere. I appreciated how well the instructors adapted to a class full of many different personality types, appreciated my extremely energetic and outgoing daughter and also brought shy and hesitant students out of their shells. It's cool to watch the kids learn to work together and develop leadership skills at the same time. PLUS, the class and instructors are ACTUALLY diverse and in many different respects which means a lot to us. I like that the focus is on personal growth, respect, self discipline, in addition to learning how to keep themselves safe.

  My daughter and I recently attended the two day SAFE class and I am so glad that we did and it far exceeded my expectations. Each class started with approximately an hour of discussion with the rest of the time spent learning and practicing the techniques taught. The instructors were skilled and thorough in their teachings. We were also able to practice the techniques with men which provided a realistic view of difference in size and stature that we realistically need to be prepared for. I must mention however that these men were extremely calm, polite and respectful and never approached us without asking beforehand if it was alright. Thank you Villari's for doing such an excellent and effective service in helping keep us women SAFE. They are lifelong skills that I hope to never have to use however I will be more prepared if I do!
