MINDBODY
Social Self-Defense: How to Manage Aggressive Behavior
WITH
Christopher Johnston
Saturday at 1pm
This workshop is about communication as self-defense. It is for adults who want to improve their personal safety and conflict resolution skills. Participants learn concepts related to human behavior then acquire usable skills through fun improvisational exercises.
Participants will learn how to:
- Detect the potential for violent conflict ahead of time.
- Redirect an escalating cycle of aggression.
- Express confidence and strength (even if you're scared).
- Calm emotionally volatile individuals.
Interpersonal aggression and violence does not happen in a vacuum. It is a social phenomenon that always includes multiple factors. There are conditions that lead up to it, psycho-social dynamics in flux during and ideal relational outcomes. Come experience an empowering approach to dealing with extremely difficult people.
