The benefits of our self-defence training in schools and colleges
In addition to boosting a young person’s safety, our school self-defence training in Surrey and London will offer a host of other benefits. School is a fantastic place to host self-defence training because it is a safe environment, where young people can explore and learn alongside their friends and contemporaries.
The benefits are vast and include:
- Improved confidence: Our courses help young people boost their self-esteem and confidence. This can be a fantastic way to help children understand more about bullying and empowers them to handle themselves in difficult situations.
- Mental resilience: Mental health is importantly a hot topic in education at the moment, and rightly so. We teach our students how to deal with stressful encounters and how to deal with potentially dangerous situations. This in turn helps to better deal with everyday life stress too.
- Self-discipline: Our self defence training encourages young people to be aware of themselves, their surroundings, and different situations. This fosters a sense of self discipline.
- Physical benefits: Our self defence and martial arts training improves physical conditioning, including strength, coordination, reflexes, and mobility. It will also increase endurance and metabolism.
- Stress-relief: Our self-defence training offers a great way of releasing stress and boosting mental health. This can have a profound effect on sleep and improve memory, productivity, and learning. It can also ward off more serious mental health issues such as depression and anxiety.
