Self-Defence Course Description for Primary School
Confidence & Safety: A Playful Introduction to Self-Defence
Club day(s):Thursday: Y1-Y3 €255,-
This engaging and interactive course introduces young students to the fundamental principles of personal safety in a fun and supportive environment. Our program is designed to build confidence, enhance body awareness, and promote healthy habits through play-based learning.
Drawing from physical education principles, we focus on:
· Spatial Awareness: Simple games and exercises help children understand their personal space and how to navigate their surroundings safely.
· Fundamental Movement Skills: We use age-appropriate activities to improve balance, coordination, and agility, which are foundational for effective self-defense.
· Assertive Communication: We teach kids how to use their voice to set boundaries. Our motto is: "Shout, Run, Tell!"—a simple, memorable sequence for reacting to an unsafe situation.
· Basic Defensive Stances: Children will learn simple, non-aggressive stances and movements that allow them to create space and protect themselves without causing harm to others.
This course is not about fighting; it is about empowerment. We equip children with the knowledge and confidence to make smart decisions and stay safe, turning them into self-assured within their community.
