The Keep Safe Basic Workshop teaches girls and women how to recognize
early warning signs of danger and how to set clear, firm boundaries to
prevent violence. We also address the psychological aspects of needing
to defend ourselves, and how doing so can co-exist with a generally peaceful
nature. This workshop is fast-paced, fun and interactive. Participants leave
with a profound sense of personal power and safety, and a renewed sense of
freedom to fully express themselves while keeping safe!
You will learn how to:
- Recognize early warning signs of possible danger
- Set clear boundaries
- Keep safe with both strangers and acquaintances
- Protect yourself in specific situations
- Use easy and effective strikes and escape moves
Practice scenarios are tailored to your group's concerns.

and I think it should be something that I do every few years."
