Hello Everyone!

Some of you know me but for those who don't it's a pleasure to meet you! I'm Rise Kujikawa.

In light of recent events and everything that went down on Iris, I have a request to make. If things like that are going to keep happening, I can't rely on everyone else to protect me. I want to learn how to defend myself. I don't know what kind of fighting I'd even be good at or what would work for me, so I'm willing to try whatever you want to teach me!

For reference, I'm a very petite girl. I have dancing experience but no real strength.

I'm willing to pay for lessons in chroma! Or helping out at your business if you have one. Reply here or directly message me!

Thank you! Hugs and kisses!

Have you considered boxing? It's a little like dancing, only with more bodily harm.

I haven't considered ANY kind of fighting until now.

I'm not against it but I seriously doubt I could hurt someone with my fists.

[meteorman]

You would be surprised. A lot of fighting, particularly fighting that's for survival and not for entertainment in the ring, is less about brute strength and more about quick reflexes and improvisation. Strength alone isn't enough in a fight and I'd go so far as to say it's not even the deciding factor.

For example, I once knew a twelve year old girl who absolutely pummeled a fully-grown unicorn. Fists only.

Well that's kind of encouraging. I can definitely improvise, I don't know about the rest, but I could practice.

Your niece sounds like a firecracker. Uh. Are unicorns usually... violent?

[meteorman]

They're jerks, every one of them. I'm sure they started it.

More to the point, dancing will give you a leg up. No pun intended. Hand to hand is ironically incredibly reliant on footwork.

Go figure...

Heehee leg up. I can do the splits, so I wonder if I could... what's it called... roundhouse kick?

[meteorman]

With practice, certainly. Kickboxing is a little out of my traditional training, but you have no shortage of people currently offering to help you become more lethal overall. Someone will be able to teach you.
