Moved to Buenos Aires and starting a women’s self-defense club from zero
Hey everyone.
I recently moved to Buenos Aires and I’m basically rebuilding my life here from scratch.
I’ve spent years training and coaching in martial arts and strength training (judo, boxing, grappling/MMA style training), and instead of just finding another random job after moving, I decided I want to try building something of my own here.
The plan is simple:
small practical self-defense classes, mostly for women. Not some luxury gym or influencer project — just real training that helps people feel stronger, safer, and more confident in everyday life.
Buenos Aires is an incredible city, but like any large city, unsafe situations happen — especially for women. That’s one of the reasons I want to make this project real.
Right now I’m trying to put together enough for the first steps:
gym space, basic equipment, and getting the first classes running.
I made a small fundraiser for the startup costs. I’m going to work on this either way, but support definitely helps when you’re starting over in a new country.
If anyone wants to support or even just share it, I’d genuinely appreciate it.
Thank you!
