Introduction to karate
By Marie Bouard, instructor at Niji-Kan Karaté Do, an LGBT karate club
Open to beginners, free, by registration only at info@betonsalon.net
As an extension of Monique Wittig’s collective readings at Bétonsalon since the beginning of the year 2023, this introduction to karate is an opportunity to get in shape and put into practice the deconstruction of gender relations. In the long history of the links between feminist movements and self-defence, it is also a nod to the practice of this martial art by many feminists of the 1970s, including Monique Wittig, who began practising it in 1975 and through it met Sande Zeig, her teacher and later her partner, with whom she wrote Brouillon pour un dictionnaire des amantes the following year.
