Self Defense for Dads and Daughters

A candid conversation about firsts – a trip to the mall, late movie, mixed gender party, date – that strike fear in the hearts of most dads. Participants will learn about the real issues today’s teens might encounter, how to recognize the signs of a threatening situation, and how to use words as a first defense.  Dads and daughters will be introduced to and practice a series of ‘Stun and Run’ tools to stop a would-be attacker long enough to make a hasty escape.  This interactive workshop was designed to empower teenage girls of all sizes, strength, and ability.  Register for course number RCC-E9407 at www.roudenbush.org today.  Cost is $49 per team.
