Effective High School Self Defence Program

OVERVIEW

HIGH SCHOOL PROGRAM

The specialized program we offer for students covers the Personal Safety component of the Healthy Living strand in the Curriculums. We educate your students with awareness, prevention, and hands-on skills that can protect them for the rest of their lives!

Students learn the physical aspects of self defence using simple, easy to understand methods that keep them active and engaged. We provide a self defence course based on reality – not martial arts that requires years of training, fine motor skills and focus.

Self Defence And Violence Prevention Training Provides Critical Life Skills.

Beyond the scope of the traditional self defence or martial arts class, students will learn to recognize and avoid violence. Our program teaches awareness, prevention, conflict management and de-escalation strategies. We provide facts and information on healthy relationships and bullying as well as managing and understanding violence in the digital world they now live in.

We also offer a program specially developed for SHSM Justice students focused on social violence and conflict resolution. The physical tactics portion of our SHSM course centers on control tactics that will provide your SHSM students with real life skills that they will be able to call on in their chosen profession. We are honoured to provide these students with skills that will complement formal training when entering their new careers.

Teens often know very little about how to prevent, handle, or defend themselves in harmful or sometimes life-threatening situations. Providing this training helps to prepare them for their independence – we’ve taught thousands of Ontario students how to life a safer life!

Benefits

Course Takeaways

While each grade has different expectations of the personal safety component, the overall objectives are common for all students. Girls, Boys, LGBTQ/Non-Binary, and the most vulnerable students all benefit from violence prevention and personal safety training. In fact, this may be their only opportunity to learn these critical life skills.

Increased Confidence

Knowing how to react to adverse situations will let you handle social situations with your head held high.

Violence
De-escalation

Violence isn’t always the answer. Knowing how to de-escalate a situation, if possible, is an invaluable skill.

Situational Awareness

Learn how to spot potential threats before they arise. Becoming aware of the movements around you is critical to safety.

Stress
Relief

Spend less time worrying about how you would respond to situations and more time enjoying your newfound peace of mind.

TESTIMONIALS

Word on the street

Check out what some of our past clients have said about our programs!

"This course was GREAT! 75 students definitely better prepared to deal with a predator!"

"We had a fantastic session! The kids really enjoyed it and got a lot out of it! We appreciate having such great people come and work with us."

"Thank you so much for having those guys come in to help us with self defence. As I was getting off the bus this guy comes up to me and stars attacking me and I was able to get him off me by using some of the stuff we were taught like the palm strike, that helped a lot. I am very grateful for this."

"Highly recommend this training for all grade levels."

"The students believe this program should be offered every year. Students feel empowered. The instructors that I have had the pleasure to work with care about the young ladies. We have already booked them for this upcoming school year!"

Thanks so much. Once again this was such a valuable experience.

FAQ

Have you ever asked yourself the following questions?

How is the training for my students scheduled?

We follow each class through their Phys Ed schedule for the length of the program. The times we see them may tumble, but we spend a total of 4 or 5 periods with each class throughout the week.

Does the school need to provide any equipment?

We bring all the training gear. All we need from the school is a gym and a set of mats.

Isn’t self defence training only for girls?

Not at all. Violence among male students is increasing at an alarming rate. Boys face different types of violence – often more severe, and more likely to involve a weapon. And we know that the cybercrime of sextortion affects young males disproportionately (extortion for money with the threat of non-consensual sharing of intimate images), with 87% of victims being boys between the ages of 15 and 17. Our programs focus on what today’s youth deal with every day, whether it be a boys, girls, or co-ed classroom.
