TEENPOWER™ Programs For Teens
         
 
Progressive pricing policy: No one is turned away!

Our services provide a professional training, which most participants assure us is not only life changing, but also offers a tangible improvement to their quality of life. Our organization’s general operational costs are not funded by government grants and we depend on course fees and donations to support our programs. The workshop fees listed below represent our break-even costs.  However as a non-profit organization, we do not want money, or lack thereof, to be the reason that you or the important people in your life would be unable to benefit from our training.  

Payment plans can be made by providing us with as many post-dated checks as necessary to cover the fee or fees can be adapted on a sliding scale basis.  If you need scholarship support, please enclose a letter briefly describing your situation and check(s) for the amount you can afford. Whatever your situation may be,
we’ll find a solution with you!

  

KEY WORDS:

Everyday Safety Skills include being and acting aware, taking charge of a situation, dealing with bullying or harassment, and getting help in dealing with strangers, bullies, peers, and trusted adults.  Role-playing and various exercises allow hands-on practice, appropriate to the ages and life situations of each participant.

Full Force Self Defense training covers verbal and physical self-defense skills. This portion of our programs allows participants to practice physical emergency-only skills on an instructor who is fully padded from head to toe.
