Pricing for Group Self-Defense Classes

This page lists prices for group self-defense classes from Culture of Safety.   Prices for public self-defense classes varies by class, but will generally follow the same 3-tiered pricing model that our ongoing karate classes offer (reduced, standard, and supporter) and just like our karate classes, we are committed to removing financial barriers while remaining a viable business.

Pricing for Group Self-Defense Classes

Our minimum class size is 8, and the maximum is 20.  Our standard rate for groups for a single session is $1500.

Discounts are available for multi-session classes, and for nonprofit organizations and businesses with fewer than 50 employees, private groups, and corporate groups without a budget line. If you have fewer than 8 participants, we encourage you to consider a semi-private class. We will always work with you to find a price point that is affordable for you, fair, and congruent with our commitment to equity.

Groups and organizations who would like to be considered for discounted pricing are encouraged to contact us.

Pricing for Girl Scouts

We offer special pricing for girl scouts, and we will always work with you to find a price point that is affordable for you, fair, and congruent with our commitment to equity.
