In this introductory class, families will be exposed to how to avoid dangerous situations. The children will be taught what to do if a stranger attempts to harm them as well as how to handle bullies their own age. Children will practice various self defense scenarios using parents as pretend bad guys. By learning in this fashion, families can practice child safety techniques together. In addition, some self defense concepts for the parents will also be covered enabling the full family to feel safer both at home and in the community. The course is taught by certified instructors from the Martial Arts Institute. Children ages 8-12 are welcome to attend with parents.
