Crucial for their upcoming years in middle school and beyond...

She is really a different little girl. She is thriving in her new school and is not being bullied like she used to be.  Her confidence and ability to speak up for herself are skills she learned at SHIELD and she has not forgotten the skills she was taught.  We miss you a lot.

Move freely in the world...

I am grateful to SHIELD Women's Self-Defense for giving my daughter the confidence she deserves to move freely in the world, knowing that she has the power - and the permission - to defend herself, should a situation arise that demands it.
