Youth Self Defense

Safe, Fit, Disciplined, and Confident

We have four primary objectives for the children that participate in our Self-Defense program:

1. To strengthen each child’s self-confidence, self-reliance and self-discipline. The greatest harm children often face from bullying is to their self-worth. Of course, we can’t promise that other kids won’t try to bully your child, but together we can ensure that your child’s Strength of Character will protect them from the emotional burden of peer cruelty.

2. To provide participants with a foundation in all of the arts we teach; so they have functional solutions no matter how they may be threatened, so they learn their own natural talents and comforts (natural strikers vs. natural grapplers), and so they learn when and how to apply each art. Emotionally strong, physically capable.

3. Empower children to speak out against bullying. Safer classrooms, playgrounds, and communities.

4. To improve the physical fitness of all participating children. Healthy bodies, healthy minds, balanced lives!

We ask that all parents refrain from “parenting from the sidelines”. Your child will often look for your approval and recognition, a trait which actually stunts the growth of their self-reliance.

If you want to be involved, we strongly encourage you to participate in the Teen/Adult Self Defense class. This will enable parents to be effective at-home coaches for their children. The children that make the greatest gains are those that have both parents and instructors with high expectations!
