Management Avoiding or de-escalating conflict
A comprehensive mental and physical course for students
aged 13-18, instilling positivity and resilience.
We all want the best for our children.
Welcome to PRS (Positive, Resilient and Streetwise), a friendly and professional UK-based organisation that prepares youth for leaving school and facing the realities of adult life.
Aimed at assisting schools and youth organisations, the courses we teach encompass a range of abilities, including – as a last resort – simple and effective self-defence techniques.
But what we first teach our students is how to avoid conflict, through the understanding of the mental and physical aspects of confrontation identification, alongside avoidance techniques, resolution systems, and by exploring the potential physiological and legal implications of engaging in any self-defence scenario.
Our PRS courses break these down into simple principles to develop and grow this streetwise mindset.
They encompass the following range of abilities :
Awareness
Spotting potential problems
Management
Avoiding or de-escalating conflict
Adaptability
Dealing with situations you haven’t seen before
Understanding
How stress changes our responses
Self defence
Simple and effective techniques as a last resort
We teach youth how to enter the real world
positive, resilient and streetwise.
Our Core Modules
Utilising a combination of psychological tools reinforced by highly effective, martial arts-based
physical elements, PRS creates streetwise self-confidence in its students.
How does it work?
Together we have created a comprehensive conceptual framework for two age groups: 13 to 15- and 16 to 18-year-olds.
These courses teach children to adapt to and extrapolate on the training we provide, allowing them to apply their new knowledge in any situation and not just the scenarios we practise with them.
Alongside the lectures, physical and role-play aspects are involved to fully prepare the students for life outside school.

- Situational Awareness
