Additional Information

The Self-Defence Method - Self-Defence and Emotional Intelligence. The WOW – I believe in the practice of self-defence as unconventional. I help schools and organisations in London to strengthen the physical and emotional well-being of young girls. What + Who – The Self-Defence Method is the only programme which help young girls to develop emotional intelligence and learn self-defence techniques so that they can be confident and prepared in life situations. Why - To help society build resilient young girls and to minimise negative consequences. How – I deliver these solutions via teaching 8 week programmes. Where - Via seminars, giving demos at schools/community centres/foster care homes and collaborating with organisations who share our values. My aim is to educate as many young girls as possible on how to plan ahead, be more proactive in the event of danger and know how to turn their fear into action, in other words help them minimise negative consequences and build resilience. These skills enable young girls to respond more effectively when presented with a threat rather than either freeze or panic. The programme is designed to equip its participants with assertiveness and awareness skills, backed up by self-defence techniques. Note: the programme has not been tested yet but I aim to do a pilot test beginning of September!
