A MARTIAL arts club is working with a Deeside gym to provide free self defence classes for women.
Seishin Ryu Ju Jitsu, in Buckley, is working in conjunction with Energie Fitness in Queensferry to promote women's fitness and safety.
The gym is hosting six weeks of free women's self defence classes - with the help of members of Seishin Ryu Ju Jitsu.
And the first was held this week - and is said to have been a roaring success, with ladies learning the key points of safety, targeting and spacial awareness.
Tom Evans, the head of Seishin Ryu Ju Jitsu, said "Myself and my team are delighted to give something back to the community and help women to be more confident in there ability to protect themselves and their families.
"We are so pleased to be working with Energie Fitness Deeside to further our reach and help more people."
