Dear Parents,
 
As parents, we want our daughters to be independent and seek new opportunities to learn so they can realize their full potential.  But we worry about whether we have "taught" them adequate survival skills to face the world.  Being able to defend oneself physically is one such skill that we believe, every girl should learn.  With this in mind, we have designed a workshop for15-17 year olds.  The objective is to help them recognize threat, avoid it and defend themselves, should the situation arise.  
 
The workshop will teach a mix of physical moves and assertiveness exercises. We will discuss and visualize difficult situations and help prepare them with responses, build awareness of body language and sensitize them to cues from the external world.  The intent is to give them a physical and mental tool box to take with them wherever they go so they are safe.
 
The workshop is scheduled for Sunday, 14th September, 2 pm and will be 2 hours long.  The venue for the workshop is Villa 18, Hillridge Villas. If you would like to be present at the workshop, you are very welcome.

Please confirm your daughter's participation in this workshop.
 
Thanks,
Charu

PS: Sharanya - please forward this to Payal Nagpal.
