Our Self Defence program incorporates a range of fundamental motor skill development in the areas of karate and martial arts.
A key component of any successful PE program is respectful relationships and interpersonal skills. Our Self Defence and Respectful Relationships workshops are designed around protection skills, safe and unsafe behaviours.
Proactivity Self Defence Programs align with the Victorian Curriculum.
At Proactivity, we believe safety is a vital life skill. Our Self Defence incursions provide students with a physical and mental toolkit, drawn from a combination of diverse martial arts disciplines, paired with engaging coordination games to build strength and focus.
While our core themes of situational awareness and personal safety are present across all year levels, we scale the delivery and complexity to suit each stage, from Year 7 foundations to Year 12 strategic application, ensuring all sessions meet the Victorian Curriculum health and wellbeing objectives.
No matter the year level, our Self Defence incursions are designed to provide a comprehensive experience:
We understand that secondary students have unique needs as they mature. Our program adapts the complexity and focus based on the cohort’s developmental stage.
Ensure your curriculum program meets achievement outcomes by including a progressive and engaging Self Defence program.

Catholic Ladies’ College (CLC) was closed to students due to the COVID-19 pandemic from the start of Term 2 for 8 weeks. During this time, CLC hired external instructors to run active lunchtime live streamed sessions, so that students could participate from home The sessions were also recorded and put onto a Wellness@home hub (intranet) for students to access at any other time.
CLC has contracted Proactivity for the past several years to conduct classroom sessions. We reached out again to Proactivity during theses unusual times as we were confident that their professional presentations would work well on camera for an audience participating via live streaming.
During this Term we had Proactivity instructors present Streetdance, Yoga and Karate Fitness. We live streamed and recorded one session, then recorded a second session with each instructor. Every instructor was punctual and professional. Their presentation style was engaging and targeted appropriately for our audience. The instructors were easy to work with and happy to accommodate our requirements in the new digital space. Working with Proactivity through the booking process was also easy and they responded to our requests quickly and with the utmost professionalism.
Today went so well! Both Bel and Estelle were so well received by the Year 7 students. We are interested in booking another session in term 4 and will let you know dates/details when we plan it out.
The team at Proactivity have enriched our Physical Education and Sport programs at Koonung. The staff are reliable, enthusiastic and always looking to tailor make sessions to best suits our students.
The coaches for our Gymnastics program were excellent! They were friendly, well prepared and extremely knowledgeable about the variety of skills being taught to our Year 8 students. The students felt comfortable with them and were able to practice and refine a variety of movements and sequences in a safe environment. It was a positive experience for all involved and we would certainly look to get the coaches back again.
The Martial Arts session was fantastic, I was very happy with how it ran and all students were engaged at all times.
Mick was outstanding, great skills in delivery and fun. The students were engaged and motivated. He catered for their needs perfectly. He covered exactly what was in the brief and the VCAL students have gained some valuable skills.
From the very beginning, the booking process was smooth and flexible and that rolled into a well organised and successful program at our school. The students were engaged and thoroughly enjoyed their experience. We look forward to continuing our relationship in the coming years.
I highly recommend Proactivity for anyone looking for an active, exciting and varied sports program. I have had the team come out to run clinics on many occasions, and have always been extremely impressed with their clinics. All the staff are highly skilled in their field and they present in a professional manner. Their enthusiasm and sense of fun are contagious!
The Holiday Clinic was great and all the children enjoyed it very much. We were most impressed with the fact that the children were totally absorbed for the whole time, after which they told us that it was the best day ever!
Wonderful activities and students said “this was the best day of the holiday program yet!”
