Teen Safety & Self-Defense Seminar (July 9th 2026, 4:00-5:30pm)
This seminar is for teenagers 14-17 years old
This seminar is designed to give teenagers the awareness, skills, and practical tools to navigate the personal safety challenges that are most relevant to their daily lives. Rather than offering generic advice, this seminar addresses the specific types of situations and incidents that teenagers are likely to encounter and equips them with the appropriate mindset and decision-making skills to respond effectively.
The seminar addresses personal safety across two core areas. “Soft Skills” such as situational awareness form the foundation of almost all areas of personal safety i.e., the ability to read environments, identify potential risks before they escalate, and make smart decisions concerning where to be and with whom. The “Soft Skills" component also covers de-escalation techniques/methods, along with how to set boundaries in a way which is respected by peers and others etc. The “Physical Skills” component taught alongside the “Soft Skills” looks at how to create distance and manage range at the start of an altercation, along with how to deal with common threats and attacks, if a situation becomes unavoidably physical.
The seminar is built around the types of situations that teenagers are likely to face rather than abstract or unlikely scenarios. These include verbal aggression and intimidation from peers or strangers; physical confrontations ranging from grabs and shoves to more serious types of assault; robbery and opportunistic theft(s), particularly of phones, headphones, and valuables; and coercive or manipulative behavior from adults or older peers that young people may not immediately recognize as dangerous.
The seminar also addresses the specific vulnerability that comes with group situations both as a potential target and as someone who may witness aggression directed at others and how to navigate both with confidence and clarity.
This is a physical, hands-on seminar suitable for teenagers 14-17 years old. It takes place at the location listed below, with free on-site parking.
