Free Safety Skills Workshop For Kids

Free Kids Safety Workshop led by the instructors of the Speak Up and Move Kids Leadership and Safety Programs at Budo Mountain Family Martial Arts. At least one grown up must attend with each child, so you can help them practice at home! Due to recent events in our community, our focus will be on neighborhood safety. Children will learn solid, research-based skills for staying safe when playing in their yards, walking the neighborhood, and other scenarios near the home when not directly supervised by an adult. Our approach helps kids be confident and not fearful.

You must register at https://ashevilleninjas.sites.zenplanner.com/event.cfm?eventId=3EB5B43C-B43C-4AC3-8147-8B3CE46C9A20
