Frequently Asked Questions

This is a place where questions that we find are commonly asked can be answered in one place. If you have a question that is not answered here, please contact us!

Where are you Located?
We have no set location. We move around the city holding classes where we are contracted, or where people have requested us. Often, our classes are set up through Women's Resource Centres, or other organizations.

How do I set up a class?
With a minimum of 6 women (maximum of 16), we will bring a class to you. Find 5 other women and yourself, then call us! If you want a class in your area, but don't know 5 women who will commit to taking a course with you, contact your local Women's Resource centre, talk to your boss at work, or bring it up with other organizations you belong to. There may be a wider network of people who are interested that can help you set up a class, and find other people to take it!

What if I am not sure if WEN-DO is for me?
Give us a call! We will invite you to attend one of our classes one time, to get an idea of what we do.

Do you offer seminars?
YES!
We offer "Intro to WEN-DO" seminars that typically run 1-2 hours in duration. If you are interested in setting this up, or you would like us to come to your workplace or other setting, please use the information on the contact page to let us know.

I have a physical disability/poor mobility/bad back, can I participate?
Yes, you can absolutely paticipate! Our goal is to teach any woman of any age and any physical ability level. If we are doing something that your body doesn't do, inform the instructor. She will help you to figure out what your body can do that will work.
