"My kids loved the self-defense practice with the padded instructor - and I have more peace of mind!"

Families with older kids practice “People Safety” skills to prevent problems and improve communication with peers, family, strangers, and others -- at home, at school, and in public.  People Safety skills help kids enjoy activities and outings of all kinds with safety and confidence.  In this class, kids will also practice physical self-defense skills for emergencies, using their ‘full force’ with a padded instructor.

Using examples and activities relevant to kids 6-12, we’ll practice skills to:

• Show awareness and confidence
• Move away from possible problems
• Build effective Stranger Safety habits
• Use voice as a safety tool
• Set clear boundaries
• Deal with bullying
• “Tell” without “tattling”
• Take the power out of mean words
• Make safety plans with family & friends
• Get help from busy adults -- and persist!
• Find your family or group if you get separated in public
• Use physical self-defense skills in an emergency: with step-by- step coaching, kids will practice using their full force safely and effectively with a padded instructor.

Workshop Fee: $140/child (includes accompanying adults with that child)
