First of all , I would like to mention that the Damini Project Seminar, conducted, on 18th March 2016, in our school , Janajaya Vidyalaya, was done at a meticulous time.
It has been noted that the poor children living in Moratuwa, specially the children living near sea shore, are more frequently subjected to abuse or sexual harassment. Most of the parents in this area are very illiterate and many of them have been convicted by law for their various misbehaviors and petty crimes. Such children are being taken care of their grand parents or some other family relatives. Although they have been educated by many of other programs , about how to avoid or to be safe from any sexual harassment or abuse, I have to admit that Damini Team was very successful in providing the children a practical knowledge by demonstrations done in your program.
I assume that our children in Janajaya Vidayalaya, are very fortunate to attend such a practical program where they were educated on how to act correctly and save themselves in a situation of sexual abuse or harassment.
I have to reiterate that three of you from Damini Project , provided our children a precious and a free of charge , practical knowledge.
I take this opportunity again, in thanking and highly appreciating your efforts. I wish you, on behalf of Janajaya vidyalaya, all the success in your future endeavors.
The Self Defense & Safety Seminar conducted by the team of Damini Project was very helpful and informative. We have received excellent feedback from the participants – the ladies who took part have learned several valuable lessons and also enjoyed the session thoroughly. The manner in which the information and skills were presented was easily comprehensible and helped us to understand the importance of self-awareness in any dangerous situation.
Thank you, the team of Damini Project Sri Lanka, for visiting Virtusa and conducting this valuable session, which gave all of us a good reminder on how our awareness, actions and reactions can affect our safety on a day to day basis.
All the best for your endeavors ahead!
I participated for the Self-defense seminar conducted at my work place, with a general enthusiasm for self-protection and did not comprehend what’s in store. The session was very well conducted and maintained a very professional demeanor throughout. Information and demonstrations were extremely helpful. The training raised awareness to be alert on the environment and to trust on our instincts. I felt empowered to not be a victim and learned new ways to defend myself.
Trainers were highly knowledgeable. They taught us easy yet, excellent techniques to defend ourselves. The instructors had us practice defense moves repeatedly to help us get used to the motions and the force required. And they were genuinely committed to ensure that we all got as much experience as possible. It truly seems important to them that each participant feels safer and more competent when they finish the seminar. Knowing that I can react to the worst of situations if I have to was well worth the seminar to me. Like to thank all the instructors Kirk D. Weicht Tithira Hiranjith Perera, Prageeth Thoradeniya, Gihan Nadeera De Silva, Dilini Thoradeniya

Dear Tithira, The training was very inspirational, energizing, bringing lots of ideas, with both substantial and in-depth knowledge together with innovative Self Defensive Methods, learning from experience and being fully practice-oriented.
