Say No to Bullying - Wednesday 7:30-9:00 pm Bellenden Road

[FitnFearless]

?Stand up for yourself. Never give any one permission to abuse you.? ― Lailah Gifty Akita

With Urban Fit & Fearless, you will learn to defend yourself but also to be assertive and regain control. The way we establish our physical presence has a huge impact on our safety. Standing in a way that looks strong and feels stable makes us feel more powerful, and also telegraphs to others how alert and confident we feel. This in turn reduces the risk of being targeted by bullies.

Standing up for yourself can be really challenging if you're used to letting others have their way or you're a people pleaser. When you trim yourself down to suit everyone else, it's all too easy to whittle yourself away; learning to stand up for yourself is a way of ensuring other people respect you and don't try to push you around or manipulate you. Unlearning the old habits of self-effacement and gaining the confidence to stand up for yourself won't happen overnight, but the journey to improvement starts with the first step.

Come and try for yourself - First session is FREE and classes are beginner friendly!
