Description
Girls are exploring on their own, and looking more to their peers for standards in boundaries and relationships. They are out more, with their friends or by themselves. They may be riding a bus solo or babysitting. And you do want them to grow into their independent and resilient selves.
At the same time you may be concerned about peer pressure and a cultural environment that romanticizes unhealthy relationship behavior and tends to denigrate girls’ abilities and sense of self.
They could use some skills to help augment the experience they are beginning to acquire.
In this class, your girl will learn to recognize “red flags” that someone may mean harm, plan safe exits from iiffy situation, practice physical moves (just in case), and learn to find supportive selfcare.
All in age-appropriate language and concepts.
Open to female and female-identified students, grades 7 and 8, at Salmon Bay. Financial assistance available, please contact Strategic Living LLC for a registration code.

Strategic Living, LLC, has been helping women, girls, and boys discover their inner super-sheros since 2003. We have taught self-defense to women from six to senior, from sorority sisters to grandmothers and business executives, homeless women and those in transitional housing, and just about everyone in between. We have held classes for dorms and sororities, law firms, restaurant employees, manufacturing facilities, medical clinics, YMCA and YWCA groups, Angeline's Center (homeless women's day shelter), Opportunity Place and other transitional housing sites, the Veterans' Administration Medical Center, Providence Everett Medical Center, girl scout troops, book clubs, and groups of families and friends who wanted to be safer.
