Feel more confident, aware and prepared for the move to secondary school with our friendly self-defence workshop, just for girls!

Help your daughter feel more confident, aware and prepared as she takes the next step from primary to secondary school.

Suitable for 11-12 yr olds, this friendly, age-appropriate course introduces self-defence in a sensitive and empowering way, giving girls practical tools to recognise risk, set boundaries and respond with confidence.

Through a mix of discussion, games, exercises and hands-on practice, participants will explore everyday situations including peer pressure, bullying, verbal harassment, online behaviour and more serious threats.

The focus is on building confidence, awareness and decision-making skills in a supportive environment.

Course overview:

Clear boundary-setting, including how to handle peer pressure and bullying

Practical striking techniques, with safe practice using strike pads

Understanding vulnerable areas of the body and which tools are best to target them

​Places are limited to 16 girls so everyone has time to ask questions, take part fully and practise techniques in a safe, encouraging setting.

The course is taught by our lead instructor, Tamsin, who is DBS-checked and first-aid trained.
