Empowering women through strength training and self-defense alongside the greatest female fighters of all time

Our Ethos

Our Mission

We believe that preparation engenders prevention. A recent report commissioned by the National Institute of Justice found that women who physically defend themselves against their aggressors reduce their risk of violent attacks by over eighty percent compared to women who are nonresistant. A second study by the University of Oregon found that self-defense is “one of the most promising interventions to prevent violence against women.”

New York Strong

Born and bred in New York City, Uppercut will offer video on-demand classes through a native digital platform where we utilize a unique blend of strength training, boxing, MMA, and traditional self-defense that improves reflexes, endurance, strength, and speed.

Our Commitment

We are passionately committed to making self-defense accessible for all women. A percentage of all Uppercut sales will go toward the funding of one-on-one self-defense lessons for female sexual assault survivors and at-risk, underprivileged women.

The Uppercut Difference
