/24-7PressRelease/ - SHERMAN OAKS, CA, April 11, 2008 - C.L.A.S.S. Self-Defense (Children Learning Awareness, Safety & Self-Defense) is proud to launch its brand new teen safety program for Middle School and High School curriculums. Following the same format as the original C.L.A.S.S. Self-Defense program for elementary schools, middle and high school teachers can now offer a unique teen safety program for their students, empowering teenagers to be more aware of internet and street predators and to defend themselves with verbal and physical self-defense survival skills when faced with any threatening situation.
ARE THEY SAFE? : C.L.A.S.S. Self-Defense Curriculum for Grades 7-12, (ISBN-13: 9780976827337) is now available through the CLASS Publications and C.L.A.S.S. Self-Defense web site (http://www.classeducation.org), for teachers to incorporate into their current physical education curriculum.
"Teenagers need to learn how to recognize danger and how to escape to safety. There is no way to ensure a risk-free environment, but there is a way to empower teenagers to be confident to fight back", said Goliger. "It is our responsibility as teachers and parents to empower our children with safe self-defense survival skills. Today's teenagers are faced with so many threatening situations and challenges, but do not know how to handle them in a positive way. The new teen C.L.A.S.S. Self-Defense Curriculum gives our teenagers the necessary tools to recognize danger before it happens. With proactive techniques that teaches Internet Safety, how to handle peer pressure, shakedowns, and sexual harassment, safety awareness of possible predators, and actual step-by-step physical techniques to defend against and escape any attacker, this complete self-defense program empowers our teenagers to make quick and positive decisions." Goliger continued, "Children are abused and abducted daily. It is for them that I developed my program, and it is because of them that I will continue my teaching to help give our children, if not a safer world, at least the safety tools they need to survive in it."
Janet Goliger has been teaching Physical Education since 1978, and is the creator of C.L.A.S.S. Self-Defense, and author of "I Need to be SAFE: I'm Worth It! - How to Protect Your Child from Danger."
