    Back-to-School Confidence Starts Before the First Bell

    Back-to-School Confidence Starts Before the First Bell How Gracie Bullyproof® Helps Green Bay Kids Walk Into School with Confidence As the back-to-school season approaches, parents everywhere are checking off supply lists, shopping for new clothes, and preparing family routines. But one of the most important things a child can bring into the classroom isn't found in a backpack. It's confidence. For many children, the first day of school comes with excitement, but it can also bring anxiety. New teachers, unfamiliar classmates, changing social dynamics, and concerns about bullying can make the transition stressful. While parents cannot be with their children every moment of the ....

    Women Empowered Self-Defense Seminar Green Bay WI

    Hey Ladies! We're happy to announce our first ever Women Empowered women's self-defense seminar. May 16th 2019 from 2 to 4:30pm at Stevens Defense Academy LLC, Green Bay WI, we will be hosting this empowering self-defense seminar. What is Women Empowered? Unlike most self-defense systems that rely heavily on strength, speed, and coordination, the techniques in the Women Empowered program employ leverage, technique, and timing, so anyone, regardless of age or athletic ability, can make them work against larger opponents. Law enforcement officials and survivors of sexual assault helped the Gracie family identify the 15 most common attack strategies that a male assailant is likely to ....

  • Stevens Defense Academy 2020 in review

    2020: A year in the rear view... thank God! With 2020 nearly over - thank God - we thought it would be interesting to people to do a year in review. It's been a year of "Embrace the Crazy", "Manage the Distance" and "Manage the Damage" but if we dig a little deeper I think we can find blessings and things to be very grateful for. Let's take a walk down memory lane... January: January started great! We brought on a co-instructor, Jay Rardin, to help with teaching and give us the ability to increase our offerings. Jay started in Gracie Jiu Jitsu under Nico in Plattville WI. He then worked with Kent at another WI sister school, Gracie Jiu Jitsu Appleton, where he got ....

  • Your Health Is Worth Defending: Our Health Safety practices

    As we move towards re-opening our doors we realize that we have a responsibility to help protect the health of everyone who comes in our doors. As parents of a special needs child we know what it is to be concerned about the health of our child. As a family who loves hanging out with friends and loves Jiu Jitsu we know the need for coming together again, in person, and getting back on the mat! So to try to balance these two needs we have come up with the following protocols to help protect your or your child's health and the health of the other students. Solo Drill Classes: There can be so many details to our techniques that it is sometimes hard to focus on all of them while practicing ....

    Hey everyone, Bored with sitting at home so much? Are you, like us, eating a little too much? We've developed an at home Jiu Jitsu-based exercise program: ABC Jiu Jitsu. Here's how it works: We've assigned an exercise for each letter of the alphabet, listed below. Each week we'll post up a "Phrase of the Week" on our Facebook page: www.facebook.com/stevensdefenseacademy You, then, perform the exercise for each letter in the phrase.

Great hands-on experience with a group of people who make you feel welcome while gradually perfecting a variety of techniques rather you're young or old and in shape or not...something for everyone and definitely family-oriented.

This experience was informative, memorable (important when you are talking about your personal safety!), and FUN! The Stevens family knows their stuff (ask them about their background in martial arts, Nate's experience as a police officer and Tricia's background as an ER nurse), and their dedication to the protection of all life (the logo on their shirts is "Your life is worth defending"!) is something worth experiencing with them.

I was blessed to participate in a week of classes for adults and by watching my children learn in a week of classes dedicated to kids. Nate and his family tailored their teaching to the abilities and learning levels for each class. The kids' level especially included great memory techniques ("Spider-kid" and "snake bite" are some of the ones the kids loved). Each person was able to participate and practice - and I mean this very seriously as I was able to do just about all of it - while seven months pregnant!

Both the kids' and adult classes included important talks about personal and family safety, again at an age-appropriate level. These classes encouraged talking with your family at home and having a plan for more than just your typical "fire escape route." In this day and age, we can have less fear of fires due to prevention and fire alarms, but not those same protections/warnings for our own personal safety - UNLESS we get informed and have experiences like the Stevens Defense Academy provides.

Finally, the Stevens Defense Academy is committed to making this experience one that goes beyond the classes - by encouraging participants to ask questions during class and following. It's amazing to have them as a lifelong resource for any questions about personal safety that I or my family might have at any point in time. In other words, if you have the opportunity to be a part of what they offer, it will be well worth your money and time. After all, what is more important than life??
