The Afrika Tikkun young people together with their mothers from Alexandra, Uthando (Braamfointein) and Diepsloot, took part in the Martial Arts Training Tournament on Saturday 20 August 2022.
The inspirational event occurred at the Quan Wessels Martial Arts Training Academy in Sunninghill.
The tournament made local youth and their mothers smile as they looked forward to showcasing the skills they had learned through the program.
They were also presented with certificates and medals during the tournament.
Youth and their mothers are taught self-defense every Saturday at Quan Wessels Martial Arts Academy since 2020.
This program is designed to mitigate one of the severe issues in the country, gender-based violence.
