Hey there all. I'm looking for some advice from anyone with experience on the matter. I was approached by a representative from a local charitable shelter to teach self defense to the employee staff. I agreed to meet with the person who contacted me in order to assess their needs. On the day of the meet, she told me that they scope of the request has changed. Here is what they want from me:
1. Self Defense and Personal Safety instruction for the staff. They have already had attacks on the employees, so they are looking to put that to an end. Also, they need to be able to safely intervene and break up fights between residents.
2. The same training for the male residents. They want me to train the residents who are still currently homeless so that they don't get beaten up on the street just because they are homeless.
3. A program for the women residents that will help them to protect themselves and their children in cases of domestic violence.
There are about 30 employees and about 1000 residents on the campus. They want to make the 3 courses available to any of the staff and residents that want to attend. Ideally, I would do this class twice a week. The problem I'm having is coming up with an amount. If it were one or two people asking for private lessons it would be a no-brainer. But I feel like basically, I would be teaching a seminar everytime that I go to this place. Keep in mind that these are people that do not have the time or the interest to join my regular class that I teach, or anyone elses for that matter. Any advice would be welcome. Thank you.
