Hey everyone, thanks for the comments and tips. This class is not sponsored through my MA school and I think that is why they have had some trouble finding people willing to put on the padding. As ya'll have mentioned, the class is designed for everyday, untrained women whom have, probably, never hit anyone full force and with the intent to damage. Going off what I was briefly told, the class teaches them to attack quickly, decisively, and hard, and then get away. It will definitely be an interesting experience.
