Growth Mindset

Feel like your confidence could use a boost - mentally or physically?

You’re not alone. Most adults never get taught how to speak up, stand tall, or handle uncomfortable situations with calm and clarity.
This event is your chance to change that — in a fun, relaxed and welcoming way.

If you’ve ever:

• Avoided speaking in a group because you felt unsure of yourself
• Frozen up when someone pushed your boundaries
• Wanted to feel stronger, safer, or just more yourself in everyday life...

This workshop is designed for you. No shouting, no pressure - just a guided, empowering experience led by two experts who get it.

Confidence doesn’t magically appear - it’s something you build.
And if you’re waiting until you feel ready… you might wait forever.
Let’s start building it together - one safe, practical step at a time.

You’ll be guided by:

👩‍🏫 Meryl, a communication coach with 10 years of experience in creative writing, public speaking and communication skills training using fun, interactive exercises.

🥋 Carles, a self-defence instructor with 25+ years of martial arts experience, including Krav Maga, known for his calm and encouraging teaching style.

This 2-hour outdoor session combines:

✏️ PART 1: The Mind – with Meryl

• Interactive easy to follow slide decks
• Public speaking and confidence building activities
• Group engagement and reflection (yes, it’s beginner-friendly!)

🥋 PART 2: The Body – with Carles

• Beginner-friendly Krav Maga self-defence
• Learn how to break out of grabs, carry yourself with presence, and feel safer in public
• Get moving, learn real-world skills, and leave feeling strong and capable

You’ll leave with:

• A clearer understanding of what builds (and drains) your confidence
• A few powerful self-defence tools you can use right away
• A sense of pride in doing something new - and showing up for yourself
• New connections with other adults on the same path

Need a break from the city rush? Come join us for a peaceful walk along Temptation Creek Trail - a chance to unwind, enjoy nature, and meet like-minded people.

We know life can get hectic. Sometimes, you just need a moment to breathe, step away from screens, and soak in the beauty around you. This walk is all about slowing down, enjoying the moment and appreciating the little things - if we see a nice view, we will stop to enjoy it; if we see a beautiful flower, we will stop to smell it. It is all about enjoying the little gifts that we will encounter in our adventure.

Nature is indeed a great source for health and inner peace. Did you know that several studies show that bushwalking reduces stress, improves mental clarity, and boosts overall happiness?

The fresh air, the gentle rhythm of walking, and the calming sights and sounds of nature all work together to bring a sense of inner peace and balance. Whether you need a reset or just love the outdoors, this walk will leave you feeling refreshed and recharged.

So ready to step away from the noise and into nature?
