I was given a lot of simple but powerful tools to use in a variety of situations, and showed me how I can apply them with my own values. I will use this program more than the skills acquired in my trigonometry class.

The program is practical and holistic. Students are able to examine and practice responses that are both appropriate for the situation and that match their own personalities. These tools help empower students to express and keep themselves safe physically and psychologically. I would highly recommend this program.

I feel safer and more confident [ ..] I’m also more aware of my surroundings and where I am in the moment.  Especially in this day and age where violence can come out of the most unexpected places in the most unexpected ways, I’m able to have more stability and confidence to deal with what comes my way.

As a school board member student achievement, empowerment and support is always on the foremost of my mind. This program is an engaging and creative way to help our high school students access and understand their personal power. By increasing their awareness, physically and mentally, they are encouraged to become experts in identifying potentially difficult situations, how to possibly diffuse them, or when necessary, to utilize physical techniques to protect themselves.
