    About Deborah W.

    Hello! I am happy to introduce myself! I am Ms. Deb. I love teaching others ways to stay safe. I specialize in Bullying Prevention and Self-defense classes. I have developed a 4-level bullying prevention system for school aged children that is very easy to learn. It was developed to build confidence, by building a skill set and helping children understand their opponent. Self-defense lessons are divided into powerful sections that improve awareness, build confidence, and build a skill set in order to defend against would be attackers. Most of the martial arts techniques are quick, not hard to perform, and very useful in your defense. If you are looking for something to increase your safety-then start with yourself-by starting here.
