Coaching for Practical Safety, Awareness & Boundaries

Self Defense Formula Coaching gives children, teens, and adults clear, age-appropriate skills for awareness, boundary setting, and physical self-protection—without fear-based teaching.

  • For: youth groups, schools, Girl Scouts, women’s groups, families & organizations
  • Focus: awareness, verbal boundaries, escape skills, and last-resort physical responses
  • Format: live coaching sessions with simple drills and safety habits to practice between meetings

Coaching can be tailored for kids, teens, women, staff teams, or family groups— so everyone learns skills that match their age, role, and real-life situations.

Why It Works

Safety Skills that Build Confidence—Not Fear

Self Defense Formula Coaching focuses on what people can do: notice early, set clear boundaries, create space, and get to safety. The result is calm confidence instead of constant worry.

Common shifts after Self Defense coaching:

  • • Increased awareness without becoming paranoid or anxious.
  • • Stronger, clearer boundaries in friendships and relationships.
  • • Faster, more confident responses in uncomfortable situations.
  • • Families and staff using a shared safety language and plan.

Over time, students, families, and teams begin to see themselves as prepared, capable, and worthy of safety—which influences every part of life.
