"Imagine if every girl that learned how to jump rope, learned how to do a round house kick"

Online Training

Not a Brick and Mortar Dojo

My plan is to use YouTube to introduce myself to my future students worldwide and invite them to my website. For the first year, I will offer one short introductory class concerning self-defense strategy, which would be different from what you will read and learn about from our web site.  It is designed to fill in the gaps in your martial arts education.
Through this website, www.ProtecttheRoses.com, women and girls can study and learn up to 50 self-defense techniques over and over again similar to an online college course. They can learn at their convenience in the privacy of their home or college dorm room. I also suggest martial art study parties where up to 10 women and girls can learn how to defend themselves with repeated viewings.  With this unique option of studying self-defense online, women and girls will get far better training as they have the option to repeat the same classes until they can properly perform the technique.

Hello! I am Cotton Batte. ProtecttheRoses.com offers exclusive martial arts training for women and girls. My vision is to train millions of women and girls all over the world and build an army of women and girls to stop violence against women and girls.  I started organizing my thoughts back in 1969, and have been specializing in martial arts, and self-defense training for women and girls ever since. 

As Buddha says "Be the change you want to see."

I hope you will study these videos over and over again. Nowadays, there is no better way to learn the basics of both self-defense and later on, in the upcoming year, Chung Do Kwon / Tae Kwon Do

Around the World in a Second

Beyond the guaranteed consistency that all women and girls will enjoy, there will also be another benefit. I now have all the English words, thanks to google, translated into 104 languages. In this way, this vital message can travel to many parts of the earth, where martial arts are almost unknown to the average women and girls to this very day.

In some parts of India and Asia, women and girls are not allowed to practice this art at all, or they are in no way encouraged to study it. In such cases, women and girls can take my online self-defense classes.

This system will allow women and girls to learn the art of self-defense in complete privacy. When it comes to learning the martial arts, they can learn it in their own time with no hint of being embarrassed by any man.

In short, I want women and girls to give up on the patriarchal yarn that family members will protect them. Once they get the idea about martial arts, I believe they will want to learn more.

The Tae-Kwon-Do Super Highway

Within the upcoming year, I will also offer beginner to intermediate training in Tae Kwon Do. You will be shown and taught six kicks, seven different blocks, four hand attacks, and all of the grappling techniques that are needed to master Tae Kwon Do. And of course, the class would not be complete without learning the forms of Tae Kwon Do. You will be taught each technique, one-at-a-time, just like how I teach in my class here in America.

I will announce daily the number of the class and what is coming up next time on short segments designed for YouTube. I will also upload videos every Tuesday and Friday. I want you to watch them and take notes so that you will begin to understand all that there is to learn with me as your coach. Every self-defense class/Tae Kwon Do will be roughly 15 to 20 minutes long and will teach in great detail what I want you to learn.
