SHIELD Empowerment Camp for Girls

Los Angeles · ★ 5.0 (6 reviews)

Empowerment camp for girls focusing on self-defense, confidence, and leadership skills.

▌ Editor's read The SHIELD Empowerment Camp for Girls website loads successfully and details a day camp program for girls aged 7-17, focusing on self-defense, martial arts, and empowerment. The camp is not listed in the ACA directory. The founder, Avital Zeisler, is prominently featured as a Krav Maga expert, author, and speaker, indicating a strong leadership background in the camp's core subject. The website outlines a curriculum that includes Krav Maga, situational awareness, anti-bullying strategies, and mental resilience. While specific staff-to-camper ratios or background check policies are not explicitly stated on the camp's summer camp page, the overall SHIELD Self-Defense website emphasizes professional instruction. Google reviews for 'SHIELD Self-Defense' (the parent organization) show a 5.0-star rating from 10 reviews, with comments praising the effectiveness of the training and the positive impact on confidence. The camp appears to be a for-profit venture given the nature of the parent organization.

Who thrives here Ages 6–12

SHIELD Empowerment Camp for Girls fits middle-elementary campers — old enough for skill-building to land, young enough that friend-group dynamics and counselor warmth still matter more than program rigor. Parents at this age band tend to prioritize a balanced rhythm of structured activity and unstructured play, which is the actual differentiator inside any given sports program.
