The Chronicle August 17, 1994<\/strong><\/p>\n

Aim is to teach students to protect themselves<\/p>\n

Forewamed is forearmed.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s the thrust of a series of self-defence courses being offered through the YMCA Family Centre this fall.<\/p>\n

Designed for women and children, the courses aim to teach participants how to protect themselves from an attacker, explains coordinator Kelly Walker.<\/p>\n

The courses were introduced about a year ago and have since been running on a regular basis.<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0They’re taught by Georges Manoli, a policeman with the MUCTC,\u00a0\u00bb W alker said.<\/p>\n

Manoli, who holds a bachelor of education degree from McGill University, is the author of two books on assault prevention and lectures extensively in the Montreal area.<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0He’ 11 teach a variety of self-defence techniques, For women, sorne of the topics that will be covered are vital striking areas, ground fighting and strategies for handling armed and gang attacks,\u00a0\u00bb Walker said.<\/p>\n

Manoli’ s method employs a practical hands-on approach. For example, participants will learn about \u00ab\u00a0power yelling,\u00a0\u00bb a simple but frequently effective means of warding off an assailant.<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0When attacked the idea is to be loud, to draw as much attention to yourself as possible,\u00a0\u00bb Walker said.<\/p>\n

Knowing how to avoid compromising and potentially dangerous situations is another area that will be addressed, she added.<\/p>\n

There are two self-defence courses utilizing the \u00ab\u00a0Manoli Method\u00a0\u00bb that are geared to youth. One is for 10- to 13-year-olds, and there’s a brand new program for children between the ages of six and nine, in which parent participation is required.<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0The kids are taught the same skills and go over the same situations, but on a level they can understand,\u00a0\u00bb Walker said.<\/p>\n

The sessions will touch on a variety of issues, from identifying risks to \u00ab\u00a0the ways sex offenders lure our children.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n

Six- to nine-year-olds attend weekly Saturday classes, from 1 to 2:30 p.m. from Sept. 25 through Nov. 5. Courses for women and older . children will be held Tuesday evenings beginning Aug.27.<\/p>\n

Registration is currently under way for YMCA members; registration for non-members starts Monday. The Y Family Centre is located at 230 Brunswick Blvd. in Pointe Claire. For information about these and a wide range of other_ courses being offered this fall, calI 630-9622.<\/p>\n
