Private tuitions can be arranged with the lady instructors at Wicker Camp. Helen is very good, hard as nails :D

why would anyone bother to go to a female only class. I hope it's not for self defence purposes, unless the women are expecting to be attacked by other women only...

well the family that asked me are of arabic origin and hence are devout muslims
so it could be due to social taboos

what other styles do you know women only classes
e.g. in taekwondo or kung fu? or ju jitsu?

sorry, I don't know any, it seems like defeating the object of training to not train in a diverse group.

I'm with cyclone on this one :thumbsup:
(as a female ex-martial artist)

Such segregation and discrimination doesn't help the current climate either :(

Segregation = The way backwards

Integration = The way forwards
