SETpoint Self-Defense Workshop for Children and Caregivers
Tuesday, April 11, 2023 • 6:00PM – 7:30PM
Location: PAAR Southside Office, 81 S 19th Street, Pittsburgh PA 15203
PAAR is partnering with SETpoint to offer survivor-focused and trauma-informed Empowerment-Based Self Defense coaching, with a core foundation to Believe in Our Strengths and Defend What We Value.
In this session for Kids and Caregivers, we’ll focus on some key skills to help kids defend themselves. We’ll discuss boundaries and practice using our voices to tell others what we want or don’t want. We’ll practice making space between ourselves and others when we want to establish boundaries. We’ll talk about getting help from caregivers, teachers, and others, and we’ll practice different ways of asking for help. As appropriate, we’ll also practice some basic tools of physical resistance.
This workshop is intended for children ages 5 and up and their caregivers. This event is limited to 20 participants.
