Read MoreSELF DEFENSE
Self defense classes for kids can be a beneficial way to increase self-esteem, build confidence, and promote safety. Not only will children in these classes learn physical techniques to protect themselves, they may also gain mental and emotional understanding of how to approach challenging situations more effectively. Handy tools such as verbal conflict de-escalation tactics, visualizations that help children remain calm during stressful events, and deep breathing exercises all play an important role in teaching kids to keep their composure and stay balanced during uncertain times. By creating a safe place for kids to learn self defense strategies, children are provided the opportunity to practice their skills with something that becomes second nature. In addition, parents get peace of mind knowing their children have the know-how needed if ever put in a potentially dangerous situation.
