Protect Your Peace: Body & Spirit Series

Protect Your Peace is a quarterly workshop series (four sessions a year) co-facilitated by Sijara Eubanks (UFC veteran, BJJ Black Belt, multi-time world champion, and founder of Sijara Eubanks Martial Arts & Fitness and Common Ground Collective) and Angelyce Serrano, LCSW, LICSW (Founder and Senior Psychotherapist of Living in Love Psychotherapy).

Each two-hour session blends physical self-defense training with trauma-informed mental health education into one cohesive experience. We believe physical safety, mental wellness, and emotional resilience are inseparable — and our community deserves programming that honors all three.

WHAT EACH SESSION COVERS

• Grounding and mindfulness to arrive fully in your body (led by Angelyce)

• Environmental awareness and how to use your voice

• 3 to 5 self-defense techniques (led by Sijara) which may include: wrist grab break, two hand wrist grab, double under from behind defense, double over from behind defense, and blocking punches

• A recentering practice to process, integrate, and close the session with intention

WHAT’S INCLUDED

• Two hours of expert-led instruction from Sijara and Angelyce

• Grounding, self-defense training, and recentering practices

• Chilled and room-temperature bottled water

• An intimate, community-centered experience designed just for us
