Satori is pleased to offer customized programs, services, workshops and classes that support schools and community groups. Supporting, teaching, and educating is the core of what we do. By teaching safety through Self Defense, we do our part in growing resilient communities where kids and youth can feel safe, more confident, and more connected to one another.
Self Defense, mindfulness, and yoga/breathwork techniques are LIFE SKILLS. In teaching these life skills, our goal is to cultivate healthy practices that support children and youth as they grow physically, emotionally, socially, and intellectually.
It is our mission to share these teachings to enable our youth to feel empowered, aware, emotionally intelligent, confident, socially responsible - and happy.
SELF DEFENSE / BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU PROGRAM
Anti-Bullying
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu uses non-violent holds and self defense techniques that can be used in response to physical aggression. We believe in empowering youth with skillsets that build confidence in body and mind, while fostering a strong sense of belonging and respect for oneself and others. With consistent practice, kids and youth learn how to handle uncomfortable situations, safely.
Character Development
We strive to teach children more than a self defense system, but also a life-long passion and resilient way of life. Our Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Self Defense program intrinsically builds character and instills positive traits, such as: discipline, respect, resiliency, humility, perseverance, and empathy.
Inclusion
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Self Defense provides a healthy social environment for school-aged children and adolescents. We join children from diverse cultural and socio-economic backgrounds without prejudice. Fostering a strong sense of belonging is a major pillar to our program. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu has also been successful for children and youth with learning difficulties, offering a kinesthetic approach to learning and problem solving.

YOGA AND MINDFULNESS PROGRAM
As an Educational Tool
The teachings of Yoga and Mindfulness are increasingly being recognized as effective educational tools in schools. Through the practice, children are not only learning a practice which keeps them active and fit, but they are also learning techniques which develop their attention, emotional and cognitive understanding, body awareness, coordination, and interpersonal and social awareness skills. It gives children an opportunity to "release and reset", resulting in a clearer state of mind - which is optimal for learning.
For Stress & Anxiety
Yoga and Mindfulness practices assist children in achieving better emotional regulation and stability. They are powerful tools which teach children to live in the present moment and assists them, not only in finding peace within themselves and the world around them; but also, gives them coping strategies to deal with stress and anxiety. Through the nurturing of positive self-love and growth, children build confidence in themselves and learn many ways to connect and relate to others.
