About

Durga Corps LLC was founded in response to the increasingly misogynistic and homophobic environment in the United States. Women and the LGBTQ+ community are vulnerable to violent individuals who have been emboldened by the current administration. We at Durga Corps are committed to providing products and information to help women and the LGBTQ+ community have a fighting chance at survival in the event of an attack. We believe that self defense knowledge is critical to ensuring safety.
The podcast, “Do not submit. Do not despair.” focuses on providing different information and perspectives from individuals with specific expertise. Self defense is a broad topic with many opinions on what is most effective. Different people may have conflicting viewpoints. The goal of Durga Corps is to provide the perspectives of our guests and let the listener determine what is useful to their unique circumstances.
Durga Corps wants to hear from you. If you have a self defense success story to share, a recommendation for a good place to train in your area, or a suggestion for an upcoming podcast episode, please get in touch!
