Courses that Build Real-World Safety Skills Over Time

Self Defense Formula Courses turn essential safety skills into clear, repeatable habits—from awareness and boundaries to escape skills and last-resort defense.

  • Formats: 4–8 week courses, short modules, or custom series
  • Delivery: on-site, virtual, or hybrid for schools, troops, and organizations
  • Designed for: youth, women, families, and staff teams needing practical safety tools

Courses pair especially well with a launch event or kick-off session, so your community starts strong and builds skills week after week.

What Changes Over a Self Defense Formula Course

Because courses repeat and reinforce skills, participants have the time and support they need to turn ideas into instinct.

Common results after a Self Defense Formula course:

  • • Participants move with more awareness and confidence in daily life.
  • • Earlier boundary-setting and clearer “no” in uncomfortable situations.
  • • More trust and communication between youth, parents, and leaders.
  • • A shared, practiced safety plan across your group or organization.

The goal is not just to “take a self-defense class”—it’s to build a lasting culture of safety, respect, and preparedness in your community.
