Anti Bully Show – Martial Arts

This highly interactive, 5-Tier Anti-Bully Program is brilliantly performed by two veteran Master Black-Belt martial artists: Prof. Robert W. Temple & Dr. Clarence Chazz Ross. They use mental, physical and spiritual techniques to show participants how to manage physical and cyber bullying.  Both Temple & Chazz are also skilled actors with broad, comedic experience in stage theatrics. Their instruction styles are completely safe because no aggressive self-defense techniques are involved. Temple & Chazz build participants’ self-confidence and self-respect while emphasizing situational-awareness and de-escalation techniques in a compassionate and fun environment.

The 1st Tier deals with CONFIDENCE which begins with proud, non-confrontational posture and behavior. The 2nd Tier addresses SITUATIONAL-AWARENESS, where it is essential to read-the-room, including body-language, and identify safety features in advance. The 3rd Tier covers AVOIDANCE or ways to bypass a threat, such as leaving the scene, or by displaying friendly or leave-me-alone gestures. The 4th Tier discusses DE-ESCALATION methods to cool-down the temperature by decelerating one’s rhythm and speed, including nonthreatening backing-off.  The 5th Tier tackles CONFRONTATION which encompasses assertive behavior, including speaking-up to stop an encounter by pronouncing hostile noises or help-seeking calls.

Temple & Chazz use Socratic, mnemonic, and guided-learning with role-play methods that stimulate emotional and intellectual growth.  Everyone enjoys this fully participatory STEAM based program that focuses on sparking imagination and creativity to manage bullying through martial arts.
