Surrey Girl Guides Rangers Learn Self-Defense at Jong Kim Martial Arts

Empowering the Rangers Division of the Girl Guides Through Martial Arts

At Jong Kim Martial Arts in Surrey, BC, we believe martial arts training builds far more than physical ability—it builds confidence, leadership, and character. This week, we had the privilege of sharing these values with the Rangers division of the Girl Guides during a special self-defense workshop.

The Rangers—made up of older Girl Guides who take on leadership roles within the organization—participated in a practical and engaging training session that focused on empowerment, awareness, and foundational self-defense skills.
