BULLY PROOF WORKSHOP
Give your child the confidence and skills they need to handle a bully.Johnny Ahmed, Instructor
What is bullying?
All the motivation that a child has to succeed in school, sports and any endeavor in life, comes from a child's confidence and self-esteem. A bully robs a child of those very important traits that can have a negative impact on the rest of their life.
Bullies are often miss-represented as children with low self-esteem, or children who suffer from abuse at home. In fact these categories make up a very small percentage of the bullies who are out there.
According to the book, "Bullies and Victims in Schools":
- 96% of children will be bullied at least once in their life time.
- 46% of those children will suffer poor grades or will abstain from extracurricular activities because of the bullying.
- 2% of those children will commit suicide because of constant harassment from classmates.
Our program is designed to give children the confidence, self-esteem, and knowledge needed to defend themselves against bullies. We will cover techniques that will improve body posture and voice tone so that your son or daughter is less likely to be bullied.
We will talk about respect and courtesy and help instill the belief system that "I am valuable and worth protecting". When those beliefs are instilled in children two things occur. They will realize the value of respect and courtesy, and will be less likely to bully others.
