Confidence Without Violence
In the Gracie Bullyproof® program, our goal is to instill your child with unshakable confidence so they can overcome bullies without violence. We teach verbal assertiveness to deter bullies and non-violent, leverage-based control holds to stay safe if physically assaulted, all while reinforcing positive values and good character. The bottom line: we prepare your child to defend themselves against bullies without turning them into one.
character development program
The Gracie Bullyproof program cycles through 6 total character development chapters every year. We spend a portion of each class teaching students how they can make the current chapter part of their lives. At the end of each chapter, students who have earned enough points at home are invited to a free two-hour party called Gracie GameDay.
