ATALANTA SELF-DEFENSE
Atalanta Self-Defense is a specialized division of Atalanta Leadership Forge that focuses on developing situational awareness and self-defense skills that are founded on tapping into women’s innate power as fierce protectors and defenders. This branch applies Dr. Alice Atalanta's unique blend of combat sports, military combatives, and the psychology of fighting with an understanding of how to communicate these lessons effectively to women in a meaningful way that sparks long-term growth.
Tim Stafford - Owner, Revolution Fight & Fitness, voted ‘Best Fight Gym in Ohio 2025’
“Alice’s women’s self-defense seminar has always been one of the most popular seminars that we’ve offered at Revolution. She gives practical and useful techniques and hacks in order for women to be able to 1) defend themselves better, and 2) notice situations that keep them out of danger.
Alice’s coaching skills are very to the point with documentation and research that backs up every aspect of the training. I’ve known Alice for so long there’s not a whole lot I wouldn’t trust her on as far as educating people.
Alice has had situations in her life where she needed to be resilient and being a woman, to be able to teach women first hand in my eyes is much more beneficial than what many self-defense courses offer (advanced BJJ techniques that aren’t trained day in and day out). Her coaching style is simple and effective.
As the owner of a fight gym, there is a lot of bad information out there, and Alice is the one I trust to actually make people safer with skills that will work in the heat of the moment.”
