Corporate Programs

Founded in 1990 by Beth Seigler and Kathy Hopwood, SafeSkills® became North Carolina's first business devoted exclusively to teaching personal safety. Even today, SafeSkills® is the only company that offers a broad-based approach to personal safety which includes psychological, verbal, and physical self-protection skills.

Businesses, agencies, universities and organizations are increasingly concerned about the personal safety and well-being of their staff, clients or students. To address these concerns, SafeSkills® teaches seminars that specifically focus on personal safety for these specialized needs.

We offer talks as well as hands-on training seminars that are tailored to meet your needs. To learn how your business or group would benefit from a SafeSkills® program, please contact us.

 I came in intimidated by my awareness of the rising levels of crime and violence. I left more aware and empowered thanks to the tools you taught me for self-protection. The instructors are capable, skilled and sensitive. Thanks!

 I loved it! I discovered unsuspected strength to call on. I still practice my punch, and I practice my yell. I look other people in the eye and walk on with authority. And of course I avoid trouble spots. But mainly I left with a feeling of being in charge, which I think is the most important lesson you teach.
