Welcome to The Shield, a beacon of empowerment and safety dedicated to fostering a safer India through exceptional Taekwondo and self-defense training. Established under the leadership of N. Santosh Kumar, The Shield stands as a pillar of strength, courage, and resilience. The core mission, “Mission Suraksha,” focuses on equipping individuals, particularly women and children, with the essential skills needed to protect themselves and navigate the world with confidence.
What sets The Shield apart is its unwavering commitment to accessibility and community service. Offering completely free self-defense workshops, the initiative reaches diverse segments of society, from schools and orphanages to corporate offices and villages. These sessions are fully funded by the founder, driven by a deep compassion to uplift and protect the vulnerable. Each training session covers vital aspects including physical combat, pressure points, psychological preparedness, and situational response techniques to ensure comprehensive personal safety education.
Since its inception, The Shield has successfully conducted over 700 workshops under “Mission Suraksha,” empowering over 1 million students and professionals. The initiative extends its impact further through the “Skill Charity” program, which provides long-term training in combat tactical self-defense and professional Taekwondo to children from orphanages. This not only strengthens these young ones but also opens doors to potential career opportunities in martial arts.
In an era where self-defense is crucial, The Shield is committed to more than just the physical aspect of protection; it’s about nurturing the spirit, instilling confidence, and building a safer community. Join hands with The Shield in this noble mission. Together, let's create lasting change and empower the next generation for a safer, stronger India.
