Every month in Australia, thousands of children miss school due to fear of bullies.
Studies suggest that bullying may be the leading cause of low self-esteem in children, and according to some surveys, less than 15% of kids actually report acts of bullying.
Children's inability to stand up to a bully is rooted in profound fear for their personal safety.
Most victims know that they must confront the bully and would like nothing more than to stand up to them. But, they simply can't follow through for fear of the physical harm that backs the bully's every action.
And, therein lies the challenge – how do you instil in a victim of bullying the confidence to face the tormentor, look them in the eye, and back them down?
The answer is simple – teach the victims to defend themselves against physical attack, and the rest will follow.
Most martial arts programs rely on striking the attacker with violent punches, kicks, knees, and elbows, but in the Zen Bully Proof program, we take a different approach.
All the techniques are purely defensive and utilize no strikes.
Furthermore...
We teach children how to DEFUSE confrontations with words and never to initiate physical aggression.
If attacked, we offer techniques to non-violently neutralize the threat and gain control until help arrives.
THE ZEN BULLY PROOF PROGRAM:
The goal of this program is to instil in your child unshakable confidence so they can overcome bullies without violence.
We will teach your child to use verbal assertiveness to deter bullies and several non-violent self-defence techniques to stay safe if physically assaulted.
If it is important for you to give your child unshakable confidence while reinforcing positive values and good character, then Zen Bully Proof program is for you!
