Year 7 Self Defence Activities
1 Unit · 6 Lessons · 16 Activities
🛡️
Learn and practice proper boxing stance with defensive guard position through progressive repetition and movement patterns
🛡️
Solo practice of break fall technique to safely fall backwards whilst protecting the head and dispersing impact through correct body positioning and arm slapping
🛡️
Learning to return to standing position from ground whilst maintaining defensive positioning with one hand protecting and maintaining visual contact with opponent
🛡️
Progressive warm-up using walking lunges, squats, sumo walks, duck walks, and animal crawls to activate all major muscle groups and prepare for physical activity
🛡️
Partner-based boxing activity where one student wears focus pads and the other practices striking techniques (jabs, crosses, combinations) developing accuracy, power control, and coordination
🛡️
Progressive strength and mobility exercise where students perform wide-stance squatting walks across the mat area, with optional hands-behind-back progression for increased challenge
🛡️
Partner challenge game where students try to touch their opponent's knee whilst protecting their own, developing defensive stance and quick reactions
🛡️
Students perform all learned techniques in sequence as live demonstration while partner observes and provides final feedback
🛡️
Progressive movement circuit including lunge walks, bear walks, flat-footed squats, sumo/duck walks and crocodile/spiderman crawls to prepare body for technical skill work
🛡️
Fast-paced partner activity where students try to gently tap their partner's toes while avoiding being tapped themselves, developing footwork, agility and reaction time
🛡️
Students work in pairs to film, review, and provide feedback on physical skill demonstrations using tablets or smartphones
🛡️
Progressive sequence of dynamic movements including walking lunges, flat-footed squats, sumo walks, duck walks, and animal crawls designed to prepare muscles specifically for rolling and ground-based activities
🛡️
Partner-based warm-up where students attempt to pull their partner's sock off while keeping their own sock on, building trust, balance, and grip strength
🛡️
Essential safety training establishing and practicing the tapout procedure for partner-based physical activities, emphasising immediate response and personal responsibility for partner safety
🛡️
Systematic progression teaching safe backward rolling technique through three stages: static position hold, controlled rocking motion, and complete backward roll with emphasis on head protection via diagonal shoulder roll
🛡️
Pairs use tablets to record each other performing a skill (3 attempts), then analyse the video together using specific criteria to provide constructive peer feedback and identify improvement areas
