Prevent and stop bullying, harassment, and cyber-bullying through awareness, action, and skills. Prepare adults to take leadership and kids to work as a team to create cultures of respect and safety for everyone.

Learn how to use your voice and body to avoid and escape from a physical assault. Successful hands-on practice with a kick pad or a full force instructor can help students develop basic skills in just a few hours. We teach physical self-defense to children as young as 6, teens, college students, women, men, seniors, and people with disabilities.

People with special needs are at greater risk of facing bullying, abuse, or assault – but they are NOT helpless! We tailor our workshops on what each individual CAN do – and work with them and their supporters as a team to ensure their safety. We have been successful in teaching thousands of children, teens, and adults with developmental delays; difficulty with vision, hearing, or mobility; mental health issues – or personal struggles with domestic violence, homelessness, substance abuse, or being a survivor of childhood sexual abuse.

People who are targets for hate/bias-motivated crimes because of their sexual orientation, gender identity, race, religion, disability, culture, or other differences are often at much greater risk of facing bullying, harassment, abuse, and assaults. Learning how to make wise choices, deescalate conflict, defend themselves, and get help, can help people stay safe from most emotional and physical violence. By preparing everyone – adults and kids alike – to recognize and take action to stop prejudice even if someone’s differences make them uncomfortable, we can create cultures of safety and respect in our families, schools, and communities.
