Choose is a self-defense platform and methodology that empowers real people in real life situations.

We believe that it is a fundamental human right to move through the world with safety, curiosity, and confidence, and we are passionate about delivering empowerment self-defense training to empower people to live life on their terms, however and wherever they CHOOSE.

If you are an empowerment self-defense instructor, trauma-informed martial arts teacher, empowerment coach, or violence prevention expert, we invite you to join our community of passionate changemakers.

Becoming a Choose-verified instructor gets you access to:

• A streamlined platform to manage your self-defense and empowerment classes, handle bookings, receive payments, send reminders, process waivers, and gather testimonials.
• Marketing and business development resources tailored to your field, with expert support from colleagues who understand your challenges.
• A supportive community of people working every day to change the world.
• Additional opportunities for training and professional development.

The platform will be launching in October 2024, but we are already accepting applications for those who wish to join at the beta phase of our launch. 

Please fill out the application below to begin our verification process. Once approved, you will be invited to claim your instructor profile, fill in the details, and start listing your classes. 

It is totally free to sign up and use the platform as we develop! We work on a commission structure; when students book your classes, a percentage of each booking goes towards our operational costs so we can keep working to support you!

Payouts through Stripe allow you to easily receive the remainder of class payments directly to your bank account in supported countries. If your country is not supported by Stripe, you can still use the platform and receive payments directly.
