➡️Confidence > Fear = A major reason why self-defense training matters for kids.

Here’s what you’ll learn in our radKIDS Personal Empowerment & Safety Education Class:
🧭 Situational awareness: Spot problems early, set boundaries, and choose safer options.
📣 Voice & boundaries: Drill strong verbal skills (“No! Stop! Help!”), safe-adult choices, and how to get to safety fast.
🧯 Everyday safety skills: From 911 practice to home, water, bike, and dog safety—skills are taught through active, age-appropriate drills.

👩‍🏫 Trusted instructors: Classes are led by Rich & Kristin—certified, vetted instructors with extensive public-safety experience; the program is self-defense-driven (not martial arts).

🛡️ Block, Protect, Stay Safe! ✋Learn some of these moves in our upcoming radKIDS® Self-Defense Course held in Apex this October 11th!

💪One of the most important skills every child can learn is how to block. Blocks help kids stop unwanted grabs, pushes, or strikes — giving them the confidence to stay in control and get to safety.

👦👧In our radKIDS® Self-Defense Class, kids practice simple, effective blocking techniques in a fun, supportive environment.

✅radKIDS® course starts Saturday, October 11th for 5 weeks

✅ Anti-Abduction Tips Every Parent Can Teach Today

🧠Here are quick, easy to learn skills to reduce risk:

🗣️ Yell a loud “NO” + run to a safe space: Teach a loud “NO! Don’t touch me!” and step back fast to create space.
🚗 Car-distance rule: Kids stay two big steps outside arm’s reach of any car and never approach a vehicle for directions or candy.
🧾 Family password: Only leave with an adult who knows your secret word. If they don’t, walk away and tell a safe adult.
👀 Name the safeties: Practice spotting safe adults/places (cashier, teacher/coach, front desk, mom with kids) when you enter new spaces.
📶 Check-in habit: Pre-plan where to meet if separated; build a simple “if/then” script (“If I’m lost, then I go to the counter and say, ‘Please call my parent.’”).

These tips align with the radKIDS® approach of replacing fear with knowledge, skill, and practiced responses kids can actually use.

👊 Want guided practice in a safe, upbeat setting?
