Personal Safety and Self Defence for Young Women

Unfortunately, in today’s society, young women have become more vulnerable than ever before. With this in mind, we have developed a program specifically for young women, which teaches them:

• Self-defence
• Creating respectful relationships
• Conflict resolution
• Avoiding potentially harmful situations

 
Our program, equips students to:

• Maximise their personal safety
• Identify vulnerable situations both physical and emotional
• Recognise the actions used to prevent or defuse potentially harmful situations

 
Students utilise simple steps to assist in pre-fight, the actual fight and post-fight scenarios. In addition, participants develop increased awareness of their emotions.
 
Our course covers specific criteria in areas relating to:

• Understanding emotions
• Recognising signs and symptoms of escalation
• Defusing & de-escalating risk/threat
• Potentially harmful situations
• Self-awareness, being assertive and confident
• Learning about options, culture and consequences
• Prevention & easy steps to identify one’s vulnerability
• Personal boundaries and limitations
• Intention, Ability, Opportunity
• The 4 D’s

 
Our program is suitable for any young woman over the age of 13 and can be tailored to meet the age and needs of the group.
