The initiative against violence against women promoted by the Italian Federation of Judo Fight Karate Martial Arts and the ASD Haka Thair karate Sala Consilina was a success. Nearly one hundred women attended the event to learn self-defense techniques. The initiative was organized within the Palacappuccini of Sala Consilina by the ASD HAKA TAHIR KARATE and ASD Lenea TEAM SARNATARO. The lesson is free. Among others, the regional councilors Tommaso Pellegrino and Corrado Matera and the vice president of the province of Salerno, Giovanni Guzzo participated.
“I took part in this beautiful initiative – commented Pellegrino – and my thoughts could not fail to go to the women who are suffering the violence of war; to that mother who a few days ago saw her son killed by bombing at the age of only 18 months; to those daughters who will never see their parents again; to women forced to leave their companions without knowing if they will ever see them again; to women suffering from cancer who, due to the violent Russian invasion, cannot have adequate and timely treatment; to all those women who still have a modicum of sensitivity, who get excited and indignant in the face of the horrors of war. An affectionate thank you to Carmelina and to the entire Casale family, to whom I testified my affection, esteem and gratitude for the excellent work they continue to do in our Territory “.
