Parents, please be vigilant!
Parents, please be vigilant! Do not wait for your child to be seen bullied on a viral video or for their school to protect them—equip them with the skills needed to protect themselves! Our beloved recruit in this video had been bullied for years for his kind spirit but now he is no longer bullied, and still has a kind spirit! Although I’ve trained in martial arts for over 24 years, and our system incorporates many—I have to say Jiujitsu is proven the best against a real attack (especially for children). Due to the current laws, it’s imperative that your child learns how to defend themselves without always having to hit someone. Please find below some teachers who we personally know will empower your child with the confidence and self-defense skills to demonstrably deal with any assault from a bully. There are many great teachers of Jiujitsu, so please search in your area. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
