OBSTACLES
Today our children face numerous physical and mental obstacles in their daily lives of which we are not always aware. Your child’s ability to accurately judge a dangerous situation can be as critical as how they choose to react to it. To protect themselves when we are unavailable, our children need to be able to first accurately judge the situation presented, and second understand what they are realistically capable of accomplishing. When a child is capable of correctly defining these key elements, they are better able to defend themselves accordingly and effectively.

Bullies will persist as long as the other children are scared of them and the longer the bullying lasts, the greater the psychological damage will be on the victim. The only guaranteed way for children to prevent the bully from targeting them is to be able to stand up for themselves. We teach children how to stand up for themselves, and if necessary how to defeat the bully head on using the proven techniques of Grappling
