Summer break is upon us, and while visions of lazy days and endless popsicles dance in our heads, a parent’s mind also wanders towards keeping their little ones safe. Here’s where Fighting Spirit Personal Safety steps in with their radKIDS program, offering a fun and empowering way for kids to learn valuable self-defense skills this June.

Running from June 24th to 28th, this program caters to two age groups: radKIDS for the younger ones (ages 5-7) and radKIDS: 8-12yrs. Don’t be fooled by the seemingly harmless names; radKIDS is a nationally recognized, week-long safety education program designed to teach children age-appropriate personal safety techniques.

Imagine this: your child, brimming with confidence, knowing how to respond to a stranger or handle a bullying situation. This is the goal of radKIDS. Through interactive games, role-playing scenarios, and engaging activities, the program equips children with the tools they need to stay safe in various situations. By empowering children with the knowledge and skills to protect themselves, radKIDS aims to instill a sense of empowerment and resilience in young minds. The program also emphasizes the importance of communication with parents and other trusted adults in times of need.

Here’s a glimpse into what your child can expect:

• Stranger Danger Awareness: The program emphasizes the importance of personal space and teaches children how to identify and avoid dangerous situations with strangers.
• Body Safety and Boundaries: Children learn about appropriate physical touch and how to assert themselves when boundaries are crossed.
• Escape Techniques: Age-appropriate self-defense skills are taught, empowering children to react calmly and effectively in potentially risky situations.
• Communication and Assertiveness: The program fosters open communication and teaches children how to use their voice to seek help when needed.

But radKIDS goes beyond just physical skills. It empowers children by building their self-esteem and confidence. Through role-playing and positive reinforcement, children learn to trust their instincts and feel equipped to handle difficult situations.

The instructors at Fighting Spirit Personal Safety are certified radKIDS instructors, ensuring that the program is delivered in a fun, engaging, and age-appropriate manner. The focus is on fostering a sense of empowerment, not intimidation. Children leave the program feeling confident and prepared, ready to navigate the world with a newfound sense of self-awareness.

Here are some additional reasons to consider enrolling your child in radKIDS this summer:

• Structured Activity: It provides a fun and educational way to fill those long summer days, offering a break from screens and encouraging physical activity.
• Confidence Boost: Learning self-defense skills not only equips children to handle potentially dangerous situations but also builds their self-esteem and confidence.
• Peace of Mind for Parents: Knowing your child has the tools and knowledge to stay safe offers invaluable peace of mind during the summer months.
