GIRLS SELF-DEFENSE
BE AWARE, BE
PREPARED
Being prepared is the key to
safety. Girls Self Defense is a non-traditional approach to self-defense
targeted at girls in the 9** - 12 age group.
Girls in this age group
are becoming more independent and are therefore becoming more vulnerable to
difficult situations. This program offers girls the opportunity to practice
taking charge of their personal safety by guiding them in:
·
Protecting their personal
boundaries
·
De-escalating a threatening
confrontation
·
Dealing with verbal attack
·
Stopping harassment
·
Cyber self-defense
(Cyber-bullying, Myspace)
·
Using physical self-defense to
get away from an assault.
Girls will
focus on being physically and mentally prepared in
the event of confrontation.
Details:
** While the
class is designed to be sensitive to the age group of the girls, the topics by
default will deal with relatively mature subject matter and should be taken in
to consideration by parents.
