Beyond the Ordinary

Haven Self Defence is a community-focused program in Edmonton dedicated to helping everyday people feel safer, stronger and more confident.

At Haven, we believe self defence isn't about fear - it's about preparation, awareness and control.

Built by Moms. Backed by Experience. Designed for Real Life.

Community Seminars

This is where your journey begins!

Join one of our community seminars, or start your own by getting a group of 5 or more together and messaging us to book! We can use our home base or yours depending on space and other considerations.

We generally look at youth ages 8 and up - topics and surrounding conversations change to accommodate ages. Seminars range from 1-2 hours.

We do seminars for work teams, cultural groups, youth groups, new comers, non profits, homeschool pods and more. If you can think it, we can do it!
