Enhanced Resilience Training 2026

In April 2026 Martial Arts for Justice was invited to Nigeria to execute a pilot session of Enhanced Resilience Training. MAJ partnered with Granny Murray Schools who generously donates the use of their school space to do the training. In the end we were able to train 20 of Granny Murray best female teachers who graduated thru the full training and we also did a full 5 day training sessions with girls and women from MeCaht and Symbols Of Hope combined. Their feedback letters are attached here.

NIGERIA has significant potential for becoming a leader in Enhanced Resilience Training. Several partners there have expressed interest in developing partnerships that would raise funds and oversee the training of instructors and implementation of a comprehensive plan to combat trauma and gender violence.
