IMPACT Teen Course – 2-Day Course

IMPACT’s core curriculum for teens ages 12-16, this 10-hour course is designed to prepare youth as they gain more independence and engage in new kinds of social situations. In this course we focus on preventing stranger and peer violence while empowering students to understand, respect, and defend their own boundaries. This course gives students the opportunity to practice verbal boundary setting with strangers as well as people they know, and trains students in a range of physical self-defense skills practiced at full force in realistic and safe scenarios against the mock assailant. The class is led by a Whistle Instructor, who is the lead coach, and a Suited Instructor, who plays the role of mock assailant and wears a padded suit to allow students to strike at full force. Students gain the confidence and skills to feel safer in the world.
