Bullying, harassment, threats, intimidation and assault are thing that we face quite frequently.  We do not think about it but any time we are introduced into a new environment we increase the potential of become a victim to one of these threats.  It is actually normal if you consider that the threat itself comes from social behavior and the interaction among different individuals.  However, as a parent I always worried if my kids will be prepared to handle this challenge and whether they will be safe in this new environment.

While I wish I was there to protect them the reality of life is that the best thing I can do for them is to prepare them so they learn how to stay safe.  One self-defense class is not enough to protect them for life but it is a start.  So with that in mind an in the spirit of back to school we will be offering a self defense class this coming Saturday, Aug 22nd at 11:30 AM.  Classes will be $10 per student and spaces are limited so if interested simply e-mail or come by the school to reserve your place.
