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.
