Every month in the United States, three million children miss school due to fear of bullies. In the Six Blades Bullyproof program, our goal is to instill your child with unshakable confidence so they can overcome bullies without violence. In fact, many believe that fear of bullying may be the leading cause of low self-confidence in children. Worse, statistics suggest that less than 15% of kids actually report acts of bullying. We know that most bullies are insecure and seek self-esteem normally by harassing smaller or weaker children. These negative experiences often create psychological trauma that might last a lifetime.
We will teach your child to use verbal assertiveness to deter bullies and several non-violent self-defense techniques to stay safe if physically assaulted. Importantly, we don’t teach how to punch or kick, since this often does more harm than good. Instead, we use leverage-based control holds to neutralize threats without violence. Numerous school districts have embraced the defensive nature of the Six Blades Bullyproof techniques as a reasonable, nonviolent response to bullying and some even host the Six Blades Bullyproof classes on campus! The bottom line is: we will prepare your child to defend themselves against bullies without turning them into one.
