BULLYPROOF: Unleash the Hero Inside Your Kid: Special Edition – ATA, is part of a new groundbreaking series designed to bring attention to the continuing problem of bullying, and the effectiveness of “Anti-Bully” programs currently in place.

“A lot of programs in schools today focus only on addressing the symptom of bullying, namely, what to do when you’re bullied,” says Alex Changho, co-editor of the book.  “What’s missing are any tools or practices to address the cause of bullying, like low self-esteem.  And on the other hand, helping individual kids become resilient from the effects of bullying – how to make them bully proof.”

This book series brings together experts from around the world, including the United States, the United Kingdom, and India.  The contributing authors include business owners, martial arts professionals and behavioral coaches affiliated with the American Taekwondo Association (ATA).

Piper draws from her years of training students in martial arts to present her chapter in the BULLYPROOF book.  Her mission of empowerment through martial arts has helped her own students become more confident and strong in McDonough.

Piper joins a panel of leaders, including: Troy Auman, Alex Changho, Scott Hertzig, Erin Lauraine, Todd Besier, Elizabeth Cummings, James Degrechie, Michelle Degrechie, Mike Moh, Johnnie Morris, Terri Strain and Michael Wegmann.

Piper is available for book signings, as well as speaking engagements on the topic of bullying.
