“A strong believer in community, I offer my support to women’s groups and the French Elementary School system. Proud of my French Canadian heritage, I instruct the B.R.A.V.E. program (Bully Resistance Anti Violence Education), in this language to hundreds of school children every year.

Helping women of all ages to develop confidence is one of the key elements of both the self defence and core strength programs that I teach. Strong and confident women are essential to our community.” - Kim Cyr
