Welcome to
GurlZone.com!
GurlZone is an interactive group
workshop designed just for young girls and their mothers. The 4+
hours of workshop time is designated to helping girls and their
mothers navigate the sometimes rough waters of early adolescence.
As a mother do you really know what
pressures your daughter faces every day? As a young woman do you
often wish you could explain to your mother just what it feels like
to be living in your shoes? Here’s your chance!
GurlZone is an empowerment workshop
for mothers and daughters in grades 4-6. The workshop series is
designed with the following goals in mind. First to bridge the
communication gap between mothers and daughter, then to identify and
name types of bullying, lastly to develop a common language for
talking about female bullying and to learn strategies for conflict
resolution. All the while focus on building the individual girls
self-esteem and confidence, not to mention its great fun!
“Studies show that the habits we
develop in our youth are the ones that will last a lifetime (Marsha
Evans, GSUSA).” Within the world of girlhood there is a hidden
culture. Many girls perpetuate or are involved in acts of
aggression that slip beneath the radar of parents and teachers.
Sometimes we as adults only get the tip of the iceberg; it’s what
lies beneath the surface that can be tricky and hard to navigate as
a young girl. This can be a culture of aggression and negativity.
To help combat this we like to teach you about this hidden culture,
as well as teach these young girls to resist the negative influences
and appreciate their own greatness.
Growing up is hard enough. I hope that together we can all
appreciate the greatness of each other and empower the young women
of today to become the GREAT women of tomorrow. Join us for this
exciting experience. Your time will be well spent.

both mothers and daughters come together, recognize and deal with

we all went through. Something we will fight to have our daughters
never go through.
